WASHINGTON -- Ted Cruz will be taking over Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison's senate seat after she decided to resign at the end of this session. But Hutchison isn't sitting idly by during the so-called lame duck session.

Hutchison and Arizona Senator Jon Kyl are putting forward the Achieve Act, the Republicans' answer to the Dream Act. Like the Dream Act, the Achieve Act would provide some people in this country illegally a path to citizenship, but it would not guarantee it.

Some argue a different option isn't needed. Senator Hutchison, herself, supported the Dream Act.

Perhaps we just need to pass out milk and cookies at the border so everybody knows how much a lot of American citizens love and respect and want to support all the illegals pouring into the U.S. Do you prefer chocolate chip, peanut butter, or Oreos; skim, 2%, or whole?

this is a little better because they aren't made citizens and can't bring the rest of their worthless illegal relatives with them but the fact you are rewarding illegals is still wrong.
