Endorsements Grow for Ted Cruz U.S. Senate Campaign

Ted Cruz for Senate announced endorsements from Tim Lambert, President of the Texas Home School Coalition, and Michael Farris, Chairman of the Home School Legal Defense Association, providing a boost with the support of an extensive statewide home school network. Lambert, also a former RNC Committeeman, will serve on the Cruz Statewide Leadership Team, and Farris will serve on the National Leadership Team.

The Texas Home School Coalition promotes home schooling in Texas by providing information and support for individuals, training and support for leaders, and various other functions and activities to advance home education. Their advocacy arm lobbies the government on issues related to parental rights and the right to teach children at home. And the PAC supports candidates who are committed to protecting the rights of home school families in Texas.

The endorsements are rolling in for Ted Cruz. A quick recap of endorsements so far include: Club for Growth PAC, FreedomWorks PAC, Tea Party favorite U.S. Sen. Mike Lee, RedState.com editor Erick Erickson, national radio powerhouse Mark Levin, President of Liberty Institute Kelly Shackelford, President of WallBuilders David Barton, long-time taxpayer advocate Peggy Venable, former RNC Committeeman Ernie Angelo, Madison Project, Judge Paul Pressler III, conservative leader Robert P. George, and former U.S. Attorney General under President Reagan Ed Meese.
