Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign released a new ad on YouTube Tuesday focusing on immigration. Titled “Invasion,” the ad captures how Cruz seems to view what both legal and illegal immigrants to America represent. As the ad opens, (mostly) white men and women in business attire come running across what is implied to be the border between the United States and Mexico.

“I understand that when the mainstream media covers immigration it doesn’t often see it as an economic issue, but I can tell you it is a very personal economic issue,” says Cruz, who ranks first in the Washington Examiner‘s Republican presidential power rankings. “The politics of it would be very, very different if a bunch of lawyers or bankers were crossing the Rio Grande. Or if a bunch of people with journalism degrees were coming over and driving down the wages in the press, then we would see stories about the economic calamity that is befalling our nation.”
