70 million tourists come to US annually, not 20 million.

Obama won't sign it.

Terrorists will still be able to come here.

Many Israeli citizens are arab muslims. Which Mid-East citizens do not require a visa to come to US?

Ted Cruz has two new legislation he's just introduced to protect Americans.
