Cruz personally stated his position here: http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/06/23/exclusive-ted-cruz-obamatrade-enmeshed-in-corrupt-backroom-dealings/

And he states that he will vote against TPA.

Incredibly, watching this live:
the DNC is supporting American workers;
the GOP is supporting a SECRET Agreement to empower Obama.

The DNC is marching to the tune of big labor, that’s all. Republicans have always supported trade agreements. Unfortunately this one is being worked out by Obama and he gets back the mistrust he sowed.

60 YES votes are in, so cloture vote passes.

Cruz flip flops, and gets to claim he did the “right thing”.

The procedural decision barely cleared the 60 votes needed— the tally was 60 to 37 —
but final passage will need only 51 votes.
