Ted Cruz votes against bipartisan bill to avoid government shutdown
U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz was one of 19 Republican senators who voted against a bipartisan bill intended to stave off a looming government shutdown. Cruz's vote broke from that of fellow Texas Republican U.S. Sen. John Cornyn. What's more, it defied guidance from Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, who warned fellow GOP lawmakers that voting against the package would let FEMA disaster relief expire as wildfires and floods ravage parts of the country.
