Ted Cruz Has Been Breathlessly Touting a Highway Project He Voted Against
Ted Cruz has spent September praising the expansion of Interstate 27 into a “Ports-to-Plains” corridor that will run vertically through Texas. He’s even gone so far as to say he “led” the effort to fund the project, both in a Sept. 1 address at Texas Tech University — video of which was obtained by Heartland Signal — and in a press notice released last Friday.
The only issue is that Cruz actually voted against the bill that funded the project.
The project was funded earlier this year through the omnibus appropriations bill, which President Biden signed into law on March 15. The Senate passed the bill 68-31 a few days earlier. Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) voted for it, but Cruz voted against it.
