Friday morning, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) received the endorsement of U.S. Rep. Ann Wagner (R-Mo.), who has represented the Show Me State’s Second Congressional District since 2013.
“I am proud to endorse Senator Ted Cruz ahead of the GOP Primary on March 15,” she said. “Republicans must unite to win behind a strong, constitutional conservative like Ted Cruz. Missouri families deserve a trusted conservative leader like Ted Cruz who shares our values and will fight for us in Washington. I hope Missourians will join me in voting for Ted Cruz on Tuesday.”
Wagner was chair of the Missouri Republican Party from 1999-2005. She also served four years as co-chair of the Republican National Committee.
“Ann is a principled conservative who has spent a lifetime fighting for a stronger Missouri,” Cruz said. “As a mother of three, a businesswoman, and fierce defender of our shared conservative values, Congresswoman Wagner is a wonderful addition to our team. Across the nation, we are uniting the Republican Party, and I’m excited to have Ann’s support in this Tuesday’s critical Missouri Primary.”
