They can reapply for immigrant status like those who immigrated here legally.

I believe Senator Cruz's plan specifies that anyone who ever entered the United States illegally would be forever barred from receiving citizenship. I do like that approach better than Mr. Trump's plan to send them all home but bring the good ones back.

Just from a personal standpoint, if someone breaks into by home and I have to kick them out, I am not likely to invite them back in. If we truly need labor, there are plenty who are standing in line waiting to get here legally.

Trump’s deportation plan does not include citizenship, and until a few weeks ago,Cruz never wanted to deport anyone.

“The amendment that I introduced removed the path to citizenship, but it did not change the underlying work permit from the Gang of Eight”, he said during a recent visit to El Paso. Mr. Cruz also noted that he had not called for deportation

Also on video....Cruz wants FIVE times the high skilled visas and Double the rest of immigration! HIS WORDS! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jDnuWLuAbCw&feature=youtu.b

During Cruz announcement for president nearly a year ago, he barely mentioned immigration.

“Instead of the lawlessness and the president’s unconstitutional executive amnesty, imagine a president that finally, finally, finally secures the borders.

â€¨And imagine a legal immigration system that welcomes and celebrates those who come to achieve the American dream”

That’s it..he does however,ask that you use your imagination A LOT.

OKAY...I’ve tried this FOUR times and the place we use to make it print without all the GARABAGE won’t make it go away! http://dan.hersam.com/tools/smart-quotes.html is NOT working today!

THis is just too much trouble to bother with!

There's one thing that really torques me off — those self-righteous Americans who say that these poor, no skill or semi-skilled illegals are doing the jobs Americans won't do. That is pure Bravo Sierra. There are all sorts of obstacles that prevent businesses from hiring Americans and make it profitable to hire illegals instead. Minimum wage laws play into this. Labor is the biggest part of the overhead for most businesses and that's why over regulation makes business owners look for lower cost alternatives when the labor market is artificially manipulated by government policy.
