Cruz talked about his bill on the Senate floor. The bill was stopped from passing because Cruz asked for unanimous consent.

Cruz's legislation was derided by Senator Chris Murphy as "theater" and not an attempt to pass legislation.

The heckler asked Cruz if he knew any of the Uvalde victims.

I do." Cruz asked why Chris Murphy objected to the school safety bill.

Cruz was asked to name any Uvalde victims by the heckler.

You don't." The facts don't matter to you. Cruz said you're a partisan and turned away.

The video was shared on the social networking site along with a message of support for O'Rourke.
