"The advance of another historic storm now makes the need for action even more urgent."</p>
<p>Conservatives in Congress have voiced opposition to tying the relief package to legislation keeping the government lights on and increasing the borrowing capacity. But the deal, reached Wednesday with President Donald Trump, got the reluctant support of Texas U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, a Republican from Houston.</p>
<p>"It is unfortunate that congressional leadership and the administration chose to tie Harvey relief to short-term extensions (of government funding) and the debt ceiling," Cruz said. "Historically, the (short-term government funding) and debt ceiling have proven to be the only effective leverage for meaningful spending reform, and I believe we should continue to use them as tools to reduce our long-term debt. I would have much preferred a clean Harvey relief bill&mdash;which would have passed both Houses nearly unanimously."</p>

<!-- / hearst/ads/duplicatable.tpl --><p>Cornyn, in a Senate floor speech, said the vast sums expected to aid in the recovery require increasing the government's debt limit.</p>
<p>"Without lifting the debt limit we couldn't actually vote for and send aid to the victims of Harvey, because we'd be bumping up against the debt ceiling."</p>
<p>Both Texas senators agreed that the $15 billion package, however urgent, is just a start. Both also have been criticized for opposing a 2012 Superstorm Sandy relief measure that they said was bloated and filled with unrelated spending.</p>
<p>On Thursday, Cruz took pains to argue that the Harvey relief funds are narrowly drawn.</p>
<p>"These funds are immediate, properly targeted to the areas hit by the storm, and focused on clean-up and rebuilding," said Cruz. "This will not be nearly enough to cover all the costs&mdash;most estimates of total damage are well in excess of $100 billion&mdash;but it is a significant first step. And Congress is committed to meeting the additional need as it is accurately quantified in the months ahead."</p>
<p>The Senate plan took shape Thursday as Houston Democrat Sheila Jackson Lee, backed by other Texas Democrats, proposed a $174 billion aid package for the Gulf region.</p>
<p>Cornyn, however, has said that federal aid for Hurricane Harvey is more likely to come in installments, much like in the recovery from Hurricane Katrina in 2005.</p>
