He ain't from Texas. He was born in Canada to an "illegal alien" father from Cuba and an American mother, and eventually came to the U.S. (to TX) as a young child (like so many in DACA children have done).

They made him renounce his Canadian citizenship over a decade ago since his party obsesses over "natural born" Americans (which he is is NOT by the GOP definition).
