Blog Stage Three: Critique an editorial or commentary from a Texas newspaper

The author of "cornyn, cruz must stand and be counted" stands firm in stating that the presidents declaration of a national emergency should be nullified (canceled) because there is "no emergency in any practical sense, neither at the border nor with immigration generally". Using this editorial the author hopes that congress as well as two senators John Cornyl and Ted Cruz of Texas employ common sense in residing the presidents national emergency. The author provides evidence of both senators being indecisive when it comes down to their vote for the declaration. The author takes advantage of the lack of certainty to draw americans to notate this and act accordingly come election time. The author argues that the need of building a wall is unnecessary, by stating opinions that are very well true, such as the idea that undocumented immigrants are not responsible for crimes in our country and that crimes by immigrants are relatively rare and usually committed in a larger scale by native americans. Another point made by the author was that with building a wall there will be consequences for americans in taking jobs that many have rejected because of hard labor. in conclusion the author hopes that senate stands with the house in rescinding the presidents emergency declaration. Taking into consideration all of the authors point i strongly agree with the idea of working hard to nullify this so called national emergency.
