“Ted Cruz Criticized by Two Pro-Amnesty Hispanic Groups
Senator Ted Cruz, who announced his candidacy for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination at Liberty University in Virginia on March 23, has been criticized by Cesar Vargas and Erika Andiola, co-directors of the radical, pro-amnesty Dream Action Coalition.
A statement issued by Vargas and Andiola posted on the Dream Action Coalition website on Monday read:
The only policy Latinos hear from Ted Cruz is that he wants to end DACA for Dreamers, block DAPA for our parents, and obstruct immigration reform for years still. We reject Ted Cruz, which is sad, because while he is the first Latino to declare his candidacy, he may be the most anti-immigration candidate on stage during the debates.
Like most pro-amnesty advocates, Vargas and Andiola have failed to make a distinction between legal and illegal immigration. Cruz and several other contenders for the GOP nomination welcome legal immigrants to this country, but are opposed to granting amnesty to aliens who have broken our laws by entering our country illegally.”
Simply enforce our current immigration laws. If they are not given welfare and jobs that should be going to Americans, they will largely return home, where the skills and knowledge they have gained from their time in the US will greatly enrich their home countries and help to lift the economies of their fellow citizens.
Cruz’s route of legalizing 20 million plus will lead to citizenship for them will lead to a tripling of their numbers to over 60 million new, largely low-skill, welfare-dependent, Leftist-voting Americans.
The country as we know it can’t survive that.

Defund amnesty; and refuse any nominees until rescinded
Q: How would you rescind President Obama’s executive action on immigration?
CRUZ: We should use the constitutional checks and balances that we have to rein in the abuse of power of the executive. Step #1 that I have called for is the incoming majority leader should announce if the president implements this lawless amnesty, that the Senate will not confirm any executive or judicial nominees, other than vital national security positions, for the next two years, unless and until the president ends this lawless amnesty. That is an explicit authority given to the Senate.
Or this?:

Q: Are you saying the Senate should refuse to confirm the president’s new nominee for attorney general?
CRUZ: We have to rein in the executive. In the Federalist Papers, our Framers talked about a president who would behave like a monarch. And step #2, we’ve got is the power of the purse, and we should fund one at a time the critical priorities of the federal government, but also use the power of the purse to attach riders.
Nice try at $#*+-stirring. Didn’t work, though.
Keeping and legalizing illegals here—as Cruz advocates—will lead to their receiving medical benefits from hospitals and doctors, with Americans footing the bill, whether or not they officially participate in Obamacare.
How are the legals going to live here? They do so by two means: 1) working in jobs that Americans should be holding, and 2) via welfare payments.
THat’s right, Cruz has been vocally against “Obama’s illegal amnesty”. But he has also stated that he would legalize the illegals not here currently.
You don’t generally get so nasty and personal, 2ndD, and you generally welcome the sharing of information, ideas, and opinions on the threads you start.
If you think legalization is so great, you shouldn’t mind Freepers pointing out Cruz’s support for legalization.
I don’t want to get into a debate here.
I will say this.
I found and posted two remarkably easy to find sources of reference for my point while you have sought out and posted nothing but crap.. I mean, opinion based on nothing.
So put up or... you know
In the link, he specifically names Obamacare, and I am pointing out that legalized illegals will get medical care here and Americans will be the ones paying for it.
I’m just sick of people acting like it’s the 1950’s and a president can just call in the regulars and federalize the reserves to put illegals on buses and in cattle cars for the trip to the border. That America is gone and probably not coming back. Mr. Obama won two national elections and Hillary has a good chance of winning the next one. Wake up.

Why go through all of that? Arrest , convict and jail the illegal employers.
And the NYTimes and American Thinker and, if you’d like, direct links to video with Cruz speaking himself. It’s out there and it’s true and nobody should be trying to keep Freepers from learning his position on it.
You didn’t read #33?
