Throughout his life, Ted Cruz has proven to be a passionate and effective fighter for limited government, economic growth, and the Constitution.

Ted鈥檚 calling to public service has been inspired by his firsthand observation of the pursuit of freedom and opportunity in America. Ted鈥檚 mother, Eleanor, was born in Delaware to an Irish and Italian working-class family. She became the first in her family to go to college, graduated from Rice University with a degree in mathematics, and became a pioneering computer programmer in the 1950s.

After being tortured and imprisoned in Cuba, Ted鈥檚 father, Rafael, fled to the United States to attend the University of Texas at Austin in 1957. He then started a small business in the oil and gas industry.

Ted鈥檚 mother, Eleanor, was born in Delaware to an Irish and Italian working-class family.

After being tortured and imprisoned in Cuba, Ted鈥檚 father, Rafael, fled to the United States to attend the University of Texas at Austin in 1957. He then started a small business in the oil and gas industry. Today, Ted鈥檚 father is a pastor in Dallas.

Growing up, his father would often say to him:

鈥淲hen we faced oppression in Cuba, I had a place to flee to. If we lose our freedom here, where do we go?鈥�

Ted has been a tireless fighter for liberty because his family knows what it is like to lose it.

As Solicitor General for the State of Texas and in private practice, Ted authored more than 80 U.S. Supreme Court briefs and argued 43 oral arguments, including nine before the U.S. Supreme Court. He also won an unprecedented series of landmark national victories that include his defense of U.S. sovereignty against the UN and the World Court in Medellin v. Texas, our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms, the constitutionality of the Ten Commandments monument at the Texas State Capitol, and the words 鈥渦nder God鈥� in the Pledge of Allegiance.

In the U.S. Senate, Ted has led the fight to repeal Obamacare, to secure the border, and to confirm Justice Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court. He has also led the fight to defend life, marriage, the First Amendment, the Second Amendment, and our entire Bill of Rights. And most importantly, he鈥檚 kept his promise to speak the truth and do what he said he鈥檇 do.

Ted has proven to be the exact type of courageous conservative we need in the U.S. Senate to restore economic growth, defend our Constitution, and protect the values we all hold dear.

Ted, his wife Heidi, their two daughters Caroline and Catherine, and his entire family have been blessed to live the American Dream 鈥� the idea that anyone, through hard work and determination, can achieve anything. And he is committed to ensuring every family has that same opportunity. ...more

Quotes by Ted Cruz (?)

“Telling the truth in Washington, D.C., is a radical act. And it earns you the enmity of career politicians in both parties. When you tell the truth about Washington鈥攚hen you expose the fact that elected officials are misleading the voters who elected them鈥攜ou pay a price. It鈥檚 one thing to criticize the other party. But when you admit publicly that many of those in your own party are complicit in the problem, well, that鈥檚 when the long knives come out.”
― Ted Cruz, A Time for Truth: Reigniting the Promise of America

“Government is never a source of goods. Everything produced is produced by the people, and everything that government gives to the people, it must first take from the people.”
