Who are my U.S. senators in Texas?
Texas's current U.S. senators are: John Cornyn (R) — serving since 2002 Ted Cruz (R) — serving since 2013 Both are Republicans. Note that Cornyn's seat is up for election this November (2026) — he lost the Republican primary runoff to Ken Paxton, who will face Democrat James Talarico in the general election on November 3, 2026. So Cornyn will remain your senator until a new senator is sworn in after that election, likely in January 2027. Cruz's term runs through 2031. Ballotpedia

The response correctly identifies both senators, John Cornyn and Ted Cruz, matching the ground truth, but includes fabricated speculative claims about a 2026 primary runoff loss to Ken Paxton and a general election matchup that are not supported and appear invented.
