The piece argues right wing voters ousted Cantor over amnesty fears while noting Senate reform would enforce work eligibility via biometric ID and E Verify. It critiques party distrust of Obama, highlights Raul Labrador as Cantor's would-be successor with a large visa plan, and calls it a cheap labor policy that maintains undocumented workers’ leverage.
