Sen. Cruz posts photos of himself delivering water to Texans in wake of backlash over Mexico trip
The Texas Republican came under fire last week for flying to Mexico with his family as his constituents in the Lone Star State endured cold temperatures and power outages.
Senator Ted Cruz on Saturday posted photos of himself carrying packs of water bottles, apparently delivering them into people's cars, and a photo of himself speaking to a woman.
The lawmaker wrote "#TexasStrong" in the tweet:
