Ted Cruz- The Truth about the Gang of Eight Amnesty Bill (Video)


By Susan Duclos

The video below is Senator Ted Cruz explaining how the amnesty bill making it's way toward a vote in the U.S. Senate right now is legalization without border security enforcement.

Details:




  • The Schumer/Hoeven/Corker amendment is nearly 1,200 pages long, was just filed Friday afternoon, and will be voted on this Monday. We saw with Obamacare what happens when Congress rushes to pass such unwieldy legislation.
  • The Schumer/Hoeven/Corker “border security” amendment to the deal doesn’t require that the border actually be secured, nor does it require any security enhancements before legalization occurs.
  • This legislation makes the same mistake of the 1986 amnesty — legalization today for the false promise of border security tomorrow. It will encourage more illegal immigration and must be stopped.



  • Cruz has launched a Stop Amnesty Now petition and while it may not prevent the Senate from passing their amnesty bill, it will give the House of Representatives encouragement to not pass any bill that offers amnesty.
