U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz will be in East Texas on Friday, touring local businesses and taking part in a roundtable discussion at Tyler Junior College.
East Texas is home to many hardworking Texans and job creators that contribute significantly to the engine of Texas economy, Phil Novack, a spokesman for the senator, said. Sen. Cruz looks forward to visiting with folks in Kilgore and Tyler, listening to their concerns and discussing solutions that will help create jobs and spur economic growth for the region.
At 10 a.m., Cruz will tour the Skeeter Boats manufacturing facility in Kilgore. At 11:30 a.m., he will tour the TJC Rogers Center and take part in a roundtable.
And at 1:30 p.m., Cruz will tour Brookshire Grocery Company and speak to employees. He will take questions from the media following his tour of Brookshire's.
Cruz was elected to the U.S. Senate in 2012. Prior to that, Cruz served as solicitor general for the state of Texas from 2003 to 2008.
Ted Cruz has been one of the few senators reliably supporting Pres Trumps agenda almost item for item.
Yep and to many on this site are to blinded by their own ignorance to even realize it!
Don’t be afraid to show a little class.
Maybe you meant that snarky comment to me, for cRuz...when his folks had the fake news sent out that Dr Ben was dropping out, after Iowa, and to vote for him.
If not, ‘don’t be afraid to show a little’ common sense and intelligence.
Cruz haters would be better off in Arizona
Jane Long: Apparently you didn’t pay much attention when those events were unfolding as it was proven that it was Carson’s own people who created the confusion, you seem to believe the Cruz people should be persecuted for aggressively purseuing an issue created by members of Carson’s campaign........i’m thankful Trump didn’t have you on his campaign “ you’re to much of a light weight for the blood sport of politics”!
I wonder if buses full of radicals will show up to shut him down, and if so, what will the good people of Texas do about it?
That sort of thing doesn’t happen much in rural Texas. Or rural anywhere, for that matter.
Just how conservative does a Senator have to be to win your approval?

I think they are just butt hurt because Cruz had the audacity to stand up to Trump during the primaries.
That’s the system we live in. Did Abraham Lincoln try to punish his three opponents?

Not that I’ve researched it but my guess would be it depends what historians account you read from that era.
It is not a matter of “conservative”, it is a matter of honesty. And seriously, I cannot believe that you still support Lyn’ Ted at this late date. I know you worked, maybe still work with his campaign or staff, was one of several propagandists and fundraisers for him on FR, but give it a break. Very, very few of us here on FR have any respect for Lyn’ Ted. He’s not qualified for president, for SCOTUS, or even the Senate seat that he lied to secure in Texas.
I think you’d find that many people here disagree with you. Yes, I was a bundler for him and will do it again for his re-election. Not a dime that I raised was from here I don’t think. And I raised quite a bit. My wife and I send some $$$ to Trump, as well.
Forgiveness isn’t their strong suit is it?
But wouldn’t it be amusing if it did? Imagine a few bus loads of Antifa, BLM, ANSWER, and other communists and anarchists deciding to “Show these ignorant, Bible pounding Texas peasants who their ‘betters’ are!” Maybe breaking some windows and attempting some arson.
I truly want to believe in my heart that they are dumb enough to do it............:)
