Now that Ted Cruz won the “Republican” Texas Primary, will he work for dominant Mexican-American population in Texas and give same amnesty given to his Cuban People?

Now that Ted Cruz won the “Republican” Texas Primary, will he work for dominant Mexican-American population the same amnesty given to his Cuban People?

The Democratic Party should mobilize Mexican-American voters and have them hold Cuban-American Ted Cruz’s feet to the fire.  It is a fact that Cubans receive amnesty via the Cuban Adjustment Act, and they receive government benefits without contributing a dime into our tax system.   Many Cubans immigrants come to the United States via Mexico.

So how ’bout it, Cruz?  Will you work to pass the “Mexican Adjustment Act” and afford the same comfort your immigrant family was afforded?  Or, will you continue to not support the DREAM Act and legal comprehensive immigration reform?  Several in the Mexican-American community view Cubans as coming into our Nation — but shutting the door behind them.
