Texas Sen. Ted Cruz bluntly told an immigrant "DREAMer" from Mexico that he will deport her if he is elected president.
At a campaign event in Webster City, Iowa, the surging GOP presidential contender was questioned by a 30-year-old special needs worker who confessed she'd benefited from President Barack Obama's Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program.
"I think of myself as a part of this community and you know, first day of presidency, you decide to deport, you know, people like myself, you know, it's just very difficult," Ofelia Valdez told Cruz, the Washington Post reports.
Nodding sympathetically, Cruz noted the executive order was "creating human tragedies" – but held firm to his stance against illegal immigration.
Special:
"If you're a DACA recipient, you were brought here illegally, and violating the law has consequences," he said.
