I posted the snippet I did because it was from the same article and it completely contradicted the snippet you provided.
Everything recent I’ve seen from Cruz indicates he does not support citizenship for those here illegally.
If you read the article very closely, what you will see is typical political speak. Those two quotes are not the opposite of each other, the one I provided uses the term 'legalize'. Your says no amnesty.
The question I raised, how will legalized illegals not eventually get amnesty?
