Cruz had the power to call Federal officials and get fed govt help agencies to move in and help Texans

Newsflash: so do the local and State officials. A call from the Governor is far more effective in an emergency than a call from a Senator.

He is an elected leader for Christ sakes. He should be doing whatever he can helping his state but he pulled a Bruce Ismay

Cruz can recommend calling in federal assistance, but the only one with the authority to officially ask is the governor.
