"Ted doesn’t
believe you have to settle, Ted doesn’t believe you should

Cruz, who represents Texas, is known for antagonizing senators
from his party. In 2013, he spent more than 20 hours speaking on
the Senate floor to protest the Affordable Care Act. Lee was
among a handful of senators who helped Cruz during the protest.
