Sen. Cruz Votes Against Spending Package

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) today voted against the spending package before the Senate.

After the vote, Sen. Cruz said, “American families have faced rampant inflation caused by runaway Democrat spending. This chaos has meant skyrocketing prices for Texans filling up their cars with gas, buying groceries, and paying their monthly bills.

“Appropriations bills shouldn’t continue this trend, mortgage our children’s futures, or fund radical policies and a host of earmarks. Texans deserved better than this hastily-crafted legislation that failed to address our border and illegal immigration crisis, and failed to protect taxpayer dollars in a responsible manner.”
