I’ve tried to read this news release from Senaotr Cruz’s office twice. In my severely depressed state, I guess I’m not able to completely comprehend.

Personally, I don’t want any immigration. I want our borders sealed and immigration halted for a few years.

I can’t see Senator Cruz being in favor of anything that would harm our country. Just the opposite in fact.

It is important to note that Sen. Cruz is talking her about legal immigration and not illegal immigration. He is not advocating that something illegal should be winked at and allowed to stand.

He is talking about legal immigration, and even though I disagree with him, I don’t want to confuse it with support for illegal immigration which is what I’m afraid people will see if they don’t bother to read it.

If the labor participation rate were higher, and we actually needed workers, I wouldn’t object to legal immigration. I don’t think that we need more legal immigration at this time.

I would be better about this if he at least agreed that there should be no increase in the immigration quotas with his changes, but that we’d just take his numbers out of the legal quotas that are already being allowed to enter the country.
