Earlier this week, Ted spoke with the Washington Post's James Hohmann about what the first 100 days of a Cruz administration might look like -- and we hope you're as excited for them as we are! With regard to the current administration, Ted noted, “If you live by the pen, you die by the pen. Everything put in place by executive order can be undone by executive order,” and that he'd use the transition put together a team to review every executive action made by President Obama and then rescind each and every one that exceeds "the Constitutional and legal authority of the President."
He also said he'd take quick action to ensure Iran doesn't acquire nuclear weapons, take steps to strengthen our relationship with Israel, push far-reaching tax and regulatory reform -- including a full repeal of Obamacare, and fight to put an end to Common Core. Read more from the interview here.
This week, Ted also spoke about how the upcoming King v. Burwell Supreme Court decision provides an opportunity for leadership. In the event the court rules the Obama Administration acted illegally in providing millions of Obamacare subsidies, Ted stated he opposes the approach advocated by some of continuing the subsidies through 2017. Instead he said, "I think the best legislative option is to allow states to opt out. I am cautiously optimistic that the Supreme Court will conclude in King v. Burwell that the Obama IRS disregarded the plain language of the statute and acted lawlessly. And when that occurs, it will be a real opportunity for Congress to lead. In a perfect world, we would take that opportunity to repeal Obamacare. At a minimum, we should allow states to opt out.”
We also wanted to make sure you saw this article from National Journal earlier this week. In it, Ted is deemed the "Man of the Movement" for his courtship of conservative leaders at a recent forum with six other presidential contenders. Ted was described as "pitch perfect" and it was noted he "blew everyone else out of the water." And perhaps most importantly, he laid out a real strategy to win. I hope you'll read it here.
As always, we thank you for your continued support -- together we'll reignite the promise of America!
All the best,
Jeff Roe Campaign Manager Cruz for President
P.S. Next Friday, Ted will hold townhall meetings across Iowa, and if you're in the area, we'd love to have you there. Click here to find an event near you.
Only in you head.....but keep spouting!!!
No facts allowed here. Cruz gave lots of speeches telling me what I want to hear and damnit I want to live in my fantasy world where he is the next Reagan-Jesus!
Actually, Vet, I got the Managing Director title from her LinkedIn page, unless it’s a fake page.
A lot of crooked federal politicians and bureaucrats doing the perp walk in orange jumpsuits and handcuffs?
Sounds good to me-—bring it!
Here’s a novel idea for Teddy and the rest of the “majority” in both houses. Pass legislation cutting the corporate tax rate to 7.5% and watch the billions in offshore money pour back into the country without any trade deal whatsoever.
Respectfully disagree that 2ndDV is wasting his time. Cruz remains the best conservative choice for 2016. No doubt there are plenty lurkers who are getting educated about Cruz, which is a good thing.
No amount of overwrought "my boyfriend just dumped me" emoting will change that.
“Democrat Suicides will quadruple as will the Suicide Rate of Journalists.
MSNBC will become all Infomercials all the time.”
You say that like it’s a bad thing...
It was sarcasm!!
Okay. I stand corrected.
“Cruz remains the best conservative choice for 2016.”
Don’t want to rain on your globalist parade,
BUT Cruz defended Obama and his TPP/TPA.
Conservatives have watched the GOP do nothing
except Kabuki and lie, lie, lie.
Cruz’s spousal connection to Goldmann Sach’s’
Trade Agreement Dept. is the last straw for many.
And many of those supported him FIRST in race,
but now no more.
H1B visas galore!
Isn’t that interesting? The Anti-Ted-Cruz team is in the mood of attacking Heidi today. And they claimed the same thing that she was a VP. Are they just one person with different screen names?
So if an American company really can’t find a US worker to fill a specific opening, they should just do without?
Fixed it.
Okay.
Come on Army. Get real. H1B’s are welfare for corporations. And of course no corporation should do without welfare.
Your ranting is lost on me. There’s some rain for you.
This seems to have become a “We hate everyone” place.
