Cruz is speaking about the role of government, and he is correct that the people should decide.
The people as States, and not as one aggregate nation should decide. Why someone has not proposed a Constitutional amendment that would allow the States to decide for themselves this issue is beyond comprehension. Of course if the SCOTUS interpreted the Constitution correctly, there would be no need for such an amendment.
