It was Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), not Cruz, who originally introduced

legislation to award the Purple Heart to the Fort Hood victims in 2009.

Cornyn’s bill coincided with a similar bill from Rep. John Carter (R-TX), whose district includes much of Fort Hood. Cornyn and Carter would introduce their bills again in 2011 and 2013.

Rep. Roger Williams (R-TX), Frank Wolf (R-VA), and Peter King (R-NY) all pushed the matter in their own

committees.
