Cruz supports temporary work permits. I believe he said 5 years but I may be wrong on that.
He has stated that he does not believe in rewarding someone who broke the law to get into this country with citizenship.
He proposed amendments to an immigration bill in 2013 that would have prohibited a pathway to citizenship for illegals.
“Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, a newly elected Republican with a penchant for making headlines, filed an amendment that would bar undocumented immigrants currently living in the United States from ever earning citizenship.”
The work permits would give them temporary legal status in that they would be here legally but it would not give them citizenship.
Securing the
border and stopping illegal amnesty is part of Cruz’s 10 pt. plan.
If you had read this article and the well reasoned comments to it, you would realize that Cruz has never advocated the legalization, or regularization of status, of anyone who is residing in the United States illegally.
You have been deceived by those who seek to dispirit and dishearten conservatives by misattribution.
