Washington, DC – The Club for Growth PAC congratulated former Texas Solicitor General Ted Cruz on his victory in the Republican primary for U.S. Senate tonight. Club for Growth Action spent over $5.5 million in independent expenditures on the race and the Club’s PAC bundled nearly $1 million from Club members to Cruz’s campaign.

“Ted Cruz is a champion of economic freedom and we look forward to seeing him fight for America in the Senate .” said Club for Growth President Chris Chocola. “Ted Cruz won because he clearly articulated the pro-growth message that Republican voters across the country have responded to. Tonight, Texas Republicans have shown Washington that the people do not work for the politicians – the politicians work for the people.”
