Ben CarsonBen Carson I introduced legislation in the Senate that I believe is more narrowly focused at the actual threat, which is radical Islamic terrorism, and what my legislation would do is suspend all refugees for three years from countries where ISIS or Al Qaida control substantial territory.
Ted CruzTed Cruz I’m raised to actually think, to use my brain.
