Illegal Immigration Cons

Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) has taken a stance against the immigration bills being drafted in congress which all include amnesty in one form or another.

Ted Cruz said, “…you’ve got Republicans falling all over themselves to grant amnesty and a path to citizenship to millions of people who are here illegally. That is a mistake. It’s wrong. And we shouldn’t be doing it.”

The deal the White House proposed would grant amnesty to the approximately 800,000 illegal aliens granted protections under Obama’s executive order known as Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, or DACA. It would also grant amnesty to an additional one million people currently occupying the country illegally.

During his 2016 presidential campaign, President Trump promised the

This program grants tens of thousands of visas to people simply because they are from a country we have not imported tons of people from.

Many of the policies President Trump has proposed could be won by simply granting those with protections a two-year extension in exchange for the immigration reform. Democrats would have little choice but to accept such a proposal less they lose millions of their supporters, otherwise known as illegal

The framework for immigration reform presented by the White House does nothing to address the perversion of the Fourteenth Amendment which grants the children of illegal aliens citizenship.

According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform, illegal aliens cost the United States $116 billion annually, after considering the net sum of their contributions.

Granting the illegal occupation of the United States legitimacy would add nothing of value to our country.

When considering the facts, it would only make our communities more dangerous, our schools more underfunded and overcrowded with standards that continue to slip, it would exasperate our $20 trillion national debt and annual deficit, and encourage another wave of foreign nationals to illegally invade and occupy our country in the
