There is no justification, period, for enabling the Obama Regime on anything.
Is Cruz perfect? Noooo. None of them are. Would he follow the laws a conservative legislature passed? In a heart beat. Would Jeb Bush do better? No Way.
“America has experienced a trade deficit for as long as I can remember”
Free trade has dismantled America’s manufacturing base, has destroyed our economy. The wages of Americans have stagnated since the advent of free trade. Our deficits were as nothing compared to what happened with the advent of free trade. That can be verified quickly; we have the internet now. The trade bill was passed in SECRET. If it is that good, why, why, was it kept secret?
“I for one, welcome President Obama to the side of common sense solutions”
Why does common sense require secrecy? Wouldn’t the common sense lodged in the bill plainly override all objections? Is it common sense to repeat the same mistakes? What is Obama’s track record for being pro-American, in any sense? Who in their right mind would trust Obama, would grant him MORE power? Senator Sessions said that the bill has an enabling clause that allows Obama to change it at his whim. With free trade and Obama, we have ninety-two million Americans unemployed.

So he is doubling down on his obvious desire to cater to corporate donors by enabling them to import cheap labor to undercut American workers.
And if you think the H1B abuse is restricted to just Information technology and Computer jobs, you’ve got another thing coming...take a look at the list of H1B elligible occupations:
