Cruz introduces bill to limit using preferred names, pronouns; critics note he uses a preferred name

Sen. Ted Cruz has introduced a bill that would limit the use of preferred names by trans people.

The irony, critics point out? The senator, whose legal name is Rafael Edward Cruz, uses a preferred name himself: Ted.

The Texas Republican introduced the Safeguarding Honest Speech Act on Nov. 15. It seeks to prohibit the use of federal funds in any policy or guidance requiring an employee or contractor of any federal agency or department to use another person's preferred pronouns if they are "incompatible with such person’s sex." The same goes for a name other than an employee's legal name.

Big and stinky if true.

Thanks rda. I actually had the Kurtz show on the tablet, but fell asleep, and had no idea Kurtz had Cruz on. I may see if I can queue it up on On Demand so I can watch the whole thing. Very refreshing to see someone push back on Cruz's BS.

Texas Senator Ted Cruz said the Democrats will strive to flip his seat at November's elections.

In an interview with Fox News on Sunday, Cruz suggested that Democrats, including Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, have made him their "number one target" while also noting that billionaire philanthropist George Soros is funding a PAC that will spend millions trying to turn Texas into a Blue state.

:snippity:
Speaking with Fox News' Maria Bartiromo, Cruz suggested that the GOP will be victorious in November's elections as Donald Trump will win the presidential election, the party will increase its majority in the House, and "critically" will retake control of the Senate.

"I will say my race here in Texas is a battleground race," Cruz said.

"The Democrats are spending over $100 million. Chuck Schumer has made clear I'm his number one target, George Soros is pouring millions of dollars into the state of Texas.

"My last race I won by less than three points because I'm the Democrats' top target," Cruz added. "I'm going to keep fighting for the rule of law, for the Constitution, for the Bill of Rights, and I'm going to keep fighting to secure the border. Even as we see these radicals undermine our safety."
