Rep. Cuellar Wants to Change the Law Giving Cuban Border-Crossers 'Pure Amnesty'

(CNSNews.com) - It's time to change the Cuban Adjustment Act, which gives automatic amnesty -- and taxpayer assistance -- to the tens of thousands of Cubans who are making their way to U.S. soil, says Rep. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas).

"I think the taxpayers need to know we're spending almost $2.5 billion dollars a year on this blanket amnesty that we're giving to the Cubans," Cuellar told CSPAN on Thursday.

Under the longstanding Cuban Adjustment Act, Cubans who make it to "dry land" are put on a fast-track to permanent legal status and eventually, citizenship. They are automatically eligible for a host of welfare benefits.

That is exactly why I couldn't support Marco Rubio or Rafael Cruz for President is because of this. Blood is thicker than water, but when push comes to shove they will do just like this clown and support allowing their kind to cross the borders and get full amnesty. We need true Americans with a long legacy in this country and not someone not even born in the country. Then you have those clowns claiming Rafael is a "Constitutional Conservative." No he is not, he is a Cuban, not a Cuban Canadian or a Cuban American or a Cuban Canadian American he is a CUBAN first and a Cuban Always. Vote Trump and then take the next 4 years to rebuild the Republican Party.

1. Agree totally with 12:43 AM, totally!
2. Vote responsibly - Vote Trump
3. Take away ALL benefits from ALL immigrants when they land on U. S.
soil, no matter where they are from, then turn them around and
tell them to go back to where they came from. All they do any
way, is make money here then stand in line at Giant or wherever
to get a wire transfer to send their money back to their country.
They just need to stay in their country in the first place all
they want to do is change our American ways to suit themselves.
