“Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker said Sunday that his “view has changed” on immigration and he no longer supports reforms that would allow undocumented immigrants to remain in the United States. “

Wonderful. I always believe it when a politician changes his stance right before deciding to run for president. /s

Heck, it’s hard enough to get them to stick to what they say even when they’ve said it for decades. DC corrupts. If they go in wishy washy, they will turn on us in a heartbeat.

I’m voting Cruz.

Sen. Cruz Presents Measure to Strengthen, Improve Legal Immigration

WASHINGTON, DC – U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) today presented an amendment to the Gang of Eight immigration bill that would improve our nation’s legal immigration system by increasing high-skilled temporary worker visas, called H-1B visas, by 500 percent. The measure would effectively address the needs of our nation’s high-skilled workforce by helping meet the growing demand for workers in the science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) fields. It will also make block grants available to states to promote STEM education efforts and increase domestic STEM professionals. The committee voted against the amendment 4 to 14 with every Democrat voting against it on a party-line vote.

So far, Cruz is standing firm.

Cruz is for the legalization of those already here:

Snippet from the article:

What has not been as evident is what “he supports: legal status for millions of people here already, while making it easier for immigrants to come here through the front door”.
