Texas (WBAP/KLIF) – The pro-Ted Cruz Super PAC ‘Texans Are’ is behind an ad accusing Cruz’s U.S. challenger of ‘welcoming’ the caravan of Central American migrants.
The ad accuses O’Rourke of saying “there is too much border security.”
“The caravan is coming, some say criminals among them, but there’s Beto O’Rourke cheering them on, welcome in stay while.”
On the issue of immigration, O’Rourke has said, “We don’t need a wall,” … “There are better ways to control immigration.”
He has told a number of media organizations and that he and Texas U.S. Senator John Cornyn have worked on a bill to invest in ports of entry.
