Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Tex.) is now 100 percent American.
The tea party favorite announced last summer that he would takes steps to renounce his Canadian citizenship after the Dallas Morning News pointed out that he probably remained a citizen there by virtue of his birth.
As of May 14, Cruz was no longer a Canadian citizen.
