As the 2016 presidential primary approaches, another candidate’s campaign is making a stop in York County.
Heidi Cruz, wife of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, will be speaking at the Clover-Lake Wylie Republican Women on Monday, Aug. 17. Supporters of the Texas conservative can have coffee with the candidate’s wife at 11 a.m. the River Hills Marina Club at River Hills Plantation. The event is free and open to the public, both men and women.
The senator’s spouse has a long public career of her own. Mrs. Cruz worked as a policy aide on George W. Bush's 2000 presidential campaign, then later worked for the Bush administration as economic director for the Western Hemisphere with the National Security Council.
In 2005, Cruz joined Goldman Sachs as a managing director running the Houston wealth management unit. She will be on unpaid leave of absence during her husband's presidential campaign. The couple have two young daughters.
Cruz’s visit will come just a week after two other GOP candidates make appearances in the Rock Hill area. Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky will be in Rock Hill on Friday, while Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin will greet voters on Sunday at the Rock Hill American Legion hall.
