Cruz to the press: What if illegal immigration lowered your wages?

Texas Sen. Ted Cruz on Wednesday criticized the way the press covers illegal immigration during the GOP presidential debate in Milwaukee, and said the stories would likely be different if the issue of illegal immigration directly effected the press.

“The Democrats are laughing because if Republicans join Democrats as the party of amnesty, we will lose. I understand when mainstream media covers immigration it doesn’t often see it as an economic issue, but I can tell you for millions of Americans at home watching this, it is a very personal economic issue,” Cruz said.
