As a fellow Texan, I am proud to have Senator Cruz represent our state. I already sent Senator Cornyn emails urging him to support Cruz. Cornyn is up for re-election next year and I hope we have a strong primary candidate because I don’t plan on supporting Cornyn.

Cruz is correct. How many times have we seen Republicans vote for cloture and then claim they did not vote for a law.

In fact voting for cloture in this case is voting for the law and they cannot hide.

You break it you bought it.

A number of sources said that the first vote comes a 1 pm today after Reid takes back the floor from Cruz, per an agreement.

Also I heard the House CR has language that allows priorization of spending when the debt limit is not increased, so as not to default.

And Reid will take that out too.

“According to Cruz, he asked Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to agree on a 60-vote requirement to pass the funding bill, which Reid refused”

Harry Reid objects to taking the government shutdown off the table in the Obamacare funding battle. It’s not like it was a private conversation. If Republicans vote for cloture at this point, they’ll be caving to Reid.
