Cruz: Immigration reform shouldnâ t include path to citizenship
- "I do not support a path to citizenship for those who are here illegally because, first of all, I think its profoundly unfair to the millions of legal immigrants who followed the rules, who waited in line and came here using our legal immigration system" Cruz said, speaking at the Anzalduas International Bridge.
- I believe the Obama White House knows that, and unfortunately their focus has been on trying to gain partisan advantage in 2014 â or 2016 â in the elections, rather than on solving the problems.â Tuesday marked Cruzâ s first official Valley visit since taking office eight months ago.
- The IRS is producing a whole lot of weeping.â About 280 people attended the sold-out luncheon----------------------

- As Congress wrestles with immigration legislation, a central question is whether the 11 million immigrants already in the United States illegally should get a path to citizenship.

- The phrase means different things to different people, and a large number of House Republicans oppose any approach that results in citizenship for people now are in the country illegally.

- “[The problem] is not our immigration system, it’s our government, and it’s the ability of a president of the United States to ignore the laws enacted by Congress.” “And it doesn’t matter what type of legislation we pass, until we address that problem, we will never have an immigration system that works,” he added.
- “There is no more of a clear cut case in our country of the president overstepping his authority, ignoring the law, ignoring the Constitution, than the president’s ordering of ICE agents not to enforce U.S. immigration law,” he said
