Most politicians, especially on the Republican side, answer the “amnesty” question from reporters with “we have to secure the border first”.
But in Cruz’s case, we know from his amendment exactly what he wants to do along the border — 1) 700-miles of double-layered fencing, 2) massive increases in manpower and resources, 3) a full biometric entry-exit system.
Only after all three actions are in place, Frazier said, Cruz would “deal with what to do with the people who are already here”. Notice, she doesn’t say he’ll automatically grant amnesty and dole out work permits. She simply says he’ll consider it once all the improvements are in place.
In rating Ted Cruz, we’ve taken all of these actions into consideration. As Roy pointed out in his blog earlier this week, we expect Hopefuls to improve in certain categories as time goes on, and we allow them to improve. We believe that Cruz’s actions in the Senate trying to stop Pres. Obama’s unconstitutional amnesties combined with his most recent comments makes him Very Good on opposing work permits for illegal aliens.
