Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, predicts that the U.S. will see plummeting illegal immigration in January and February after President-elect Trump is inaugurated.
Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, predicted that illegal immigration will begin to « plummet » immediately after President-elect Trump is inaugurated early next year.
Cruz made the statement during a Sunday morning appearance on CBS’ « Face the Nation » with host Margaret Brennan. Cruz argued that the decrease will begin in the weeks after Trump takes office, citing Trump’s plan to reinstate the « remain in Mexico » policy.
« I expect we will once again enter into ‘remain in Mexico,’ and we are going to see – I’m going to make a prediction right now: We will see the numbers plummet of illegal immigration coming into this country », Cruz said. « Not in a year, not in six months, but in January and February, because we will have a president who will vigorously enforce the law.
