Earlier this week, Ted spoke with the Washington Post's James Hohmann about what the first 100 days of a Cruz administration might look like -- and we hope you're as excited for them as we are! With regard to the current administration, Ted noted, “If you live by the pen, you die by the pen. Everything put in place by executive order can be undone by executive order,” and that he'd use the transition put together a team to review every executive action made by President Obama and then rescind each and every one that exceeds "the Constitutional and legal authority of the President."
He also said he'd take quick action to ensure Iran doesn't acquire nuclear weapons, take steps to strengthen our relationship with Israel, push far-reaching tax and regulatory reform -- including a full repeal of Obamacare, and fight to put an end to Common Core. Read more from the interview here.
This week, Ted also spoke about how the upcoming King v. Burwell Supreme Court decision provides an opportunity for leadership. In the event the court rules the Obama Administration acted illegally in providing millions of Obamacare subsidies, Ted stated he opposes the approach advocated by some of continuing the subsidies through 2017. Instead he said, "I think the best legislative option is to allow states to opt out. I am cautiously optimistic that the Supreme Court will conclude in King v. Burwell that the Obama IRS disregarded the plain language of the statute and acted lawlessly. And when that occurs, it will be a real opportunity for Congress to lead. In a perfect world, we would take that opportunity to repeal Obamacare. At a minimum, we should allow states to opt out.”
We also wanted to make sure you saw this article from National Journal earlier this week. In it, Ted is deemed the "Man of the Movement" for his courtship of conservative leaders at a recent forum with six other presidential contenders. Ted was described as "pitch perfect" and it was noted he "blew everyone else out of the water." And perhaps most importantly, he laid out a real strategy to win. I hope you'll read it here.
As always, we thank you for your continued support -- together we'll reignite the promise of America!
All the best,
Jeff Roe Campaign Manager Cruz for President
P.S. Next Friday, Ted will hold townhall meetings across Iowa, and if you're in the area, we'd love to have you there. Click here to find an event near you.
As a veteran’s representative I worked many of those job orders that companies HAVE TO file with the unemployment office before they can fill those positions. There really weren’t that many qualified candidates for those openings in our database. When there was, many times the company would hire them, despite what 99.9% of the people here think.
“So if an American company really can’t find a US worker to fill a specific opening, they should just do without?”
Train one?
So those companies aren’t paying the visa holders? You ought to write an article about that. And I suppose the visa holders send 100% of their paychecks (if they actually get one!) back to India, China, Pakistan or Ireland and don’t spend a cent here on anything?
If you’ve been through high school and maybe beyond on our tax dollars and are still unqualified for good jobs, is that our fault? And I’ll tell you what will happen in many cases after that company has spent thousands of dollars in training those workers ... they’ll leave for a better job at another firm that didn’t have to spend a dime training him or her. H1-B visa holders can’t do that, did you know that?
Their goal is to overwhelm us with negativity in order for us to give up the fight to restore this country.
B U S Y! Taking names and kicking asses.
Indentured slavery is so much better. /sarc
Fixed.
If they are not Paulistas, then they must be Jebites or Chrispy Cremers.
Hey you have a right to support corporate welfare and cronyism. Lots of Marxists do. :-)
There is no job in the USA that cannot be filled at the right salary. It is called the free market. H-1B is governmental interference in the free market, why are you so in favor of that? Do you really have misgivings about the free market and that it really doesn't work?
You going to be the Anti Anything guy this election too?
So you think companies have an unlimited budget when it comes to hiring workers? What union are you a member of?
You have no clue whether people who have been trained for a job will stay with a company or not. That’s not a relevant argument. Its free enterprise.
But of course it is better to get slave labor who have no choice but to work for less than an American worker and can’t go to another company if they get offered more money.
We have 92 million people out of work I think companies can find workers.
If your company cannot figure out how to properly staff without government interference then it should go out of business. Your competitors will then have a bigger market share and can then afford to pay prevailing wages.
Day 101 Start up the draft
Day 201 Start invading Iran, Palestinians, ISIS, Ukraine and Pakistan.
Day 301 Take the guard off the Mexican border and put them on the Canadian border to stop the millenniums heading for Canada.
Day 302 Supreme Court rules Cruz born in Canada.
92 million unemployed. STEM wages flat for a decade. US graduates twice as many STEM students than required to fill job growth. And yet we need more H1B visas. I mean who is kidding who? One thing to support a candidate with a wart or two, another entirely to claim the warts are beauty marks. It wreaks.
Just like McCain and Val. Using the IRS against conservatives, too?
Good to know NOW that globalist Cruz & supporters endorse such disgusting enemy lists.
"AntiAnything"?
No. Conservatives are pro-Transparency, pro-Freedom and pro-Constitution.
My twenty-plus years of experience begs to differ with you. Employees are not “one-size fits all” I’m afraid. Would you put the typical ghetto resident, brand new illegal immigrant or an individual with a room temperature IQ in an IT position? The H1-B visa holders are free to go back to their country of origin and work for anyone they want to.
