Sens. Cruz and Sessions Introduce H-1B Reduction/Reform Bill

In sharp contrast to the Grassley-Durbin bill calling for some useful modifications of the H-1B program, Sens. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) have introduced legislation that would just about terminate the H-1B worker program, as they announced in a press release.

This is the most sweeping anti-H-1B legislation to be introduced into Congress in my memory.

Sessions, chair of the Senate's immigration subcommittee, has long been opposed to the H-1B program because it denies jobs to some U.S. workers and reduces wages for many others. Cruz, now a candidate for president, was, until recently, a champion of expanding the program.

In fact, during the 2013 debate on the Gang of Eight's "comprehensive immigration reform" bill, Cruz, at the committee level, introduced a failed amendment that would have boosted the ceilings on new H-1B admissions from 85,000 to 325,000, as I reported at the time.

The Cruz-Sessions bill is in harmony with the Texas senator's overall current immigration policy, hailed as "imperfect but a big step forward" by Mark Krikorian in a posting last month.

The Cruz-Sessions legislation, the American Jobs First Act of 2015 (S.2394), would set a minimum wage of $110,000 a year for new H-1Bs, which would seriously dampen employers' interest in the program, as they usually pay much less than that for their...

The More Dishonest Lefties Attack Trump, The More I Like Him...


Ted Cruz is still my top guy, but damn I love the way that Trump frustrates the traitorous, lying press and the left in general. They will lie about what he says, take it out of context, lie to the low information masses and still, Trump stays on top and gives the leftstream media heartburn at night. If it makes lefties feel uncomfortable or bad, if it frustrates them, and makes them angry the more I like it.

Years and years of hearing the lies of the media, the way they cover a minor topic as if it was important and then completely ignore news that I feel is important, the way the leftist media brainwashes and indoctrinates lazy and ignorant minds have frustrated me for years. Your turn assholes, I hope Trump grabs you by the balls and makes you scream for your mommies, you filthy, lying assholes.

Ted Cruz Climate Hearings – Seven Points The Hoax Promoting Alarmists Can’t Answer That Refute Their Claims

Senator Ted Cruz closes a hearing of the Commerce, Science and Transportation Subcommittee into topic of the legitimacy of the theory of man-caused global warming, saying, “This hearing was a hearing to discuss facts and evidence and data rather than partisan dogma and ideology and there are at least seven facts that our witnesses have laid out here for which there have been, I believe, no effective response.”

In other words, the point the Senator is making is that the facts, when presented without the bluster of a religious zealot and the vague broad predictions of a palm reader don’t stand up to scrutiny. Alarmists generally won’t subject themselves to such a situation in which they have to defend their assertions, as they have no basis from which to mount a defense. They’re guaranteed, automatic losers. He cited the following points:


  • Number one, carbon dioxide, rather than being a pollutant, is good for plant life.
  • Number two, that the earth, right now, today, is greening.”
  • Number three, that for significant periods in history....

Hillary Clinton’s most repugnant lie...

George Stephanopoulos asked her Sunday if she’d told the victims it was about the film. Clinton gave a flat “no.”

She added: “I said very clearly there had been a terrorist group, uh, that had taken responsibility on Facebook, um . . .”

At least four family members disagree.

Tyrone Woods’ father said he hugged Clinton and shook her hand. Then “she said we are going to have the filmmaker arrested who was responsible for the death of my son . . . She said ‘the filmmaker who was responsible for the death of your son.’ ”


Sean Smith’s mother said Hillary is “absolutely lying . . . She said it was because of the video.” Smith’s uncle backs her up.

Glen Doherty’s sister agreed: “When I think back now to that day and what she knew, it shows me a lot about her character that she would choose in that moment to basically perpetuate what she knew was untrue.”

“What she knew” refers to Clinton’s words to daughter Chelsea the night of the assault and the next day to Egypt’s prime minister, which made it plain the secretary of state knew full well that...

Sen. Ted Cruz: ‘Global Warming Alarmists’ Ignore Scientific Data ‘Inconvenient’ to Climate Change Narrative

Republican Sen. Ted Cruz convened a subcommittee hearing Tuesday to dispute the validity of research from climate “alarmists,” whose findings have become central to crafting environmental policy.

Cruz used his opening remarks to detail the 2013 expedition where a ship of 74 people sent into Antarctica to research climate change got stuck in ice, forcing an airlift rescue a week later.

“This expedition was there to document how the ice was vanishing in the Antarctic, but the ship became stuck,” Cruz said before the Senate Commerce Subcommittee on Space, Science and Competitiveness. “It had run into an inconvenient truth, as Al Gore might put it.”

Cruz, who chairs the subcommittee, also noted Secretary of State John Kerry’s 2009 claim that the Arctic would be “ice-free” by the summer of 2013—which was the same year the researchers became trapped in ice.

Republicans on the committee said the hearing was intended to shed light on “opposing viewpoints in the field of...
