Club for Growth PAC Endorses John Ratcliffe for Congress

 Club for Growth President Chris Chocola: “John Ratcliffe is a constitutional conservative who will champion economic freedom and individual liberty in Congress.”  

Washington, DC – The Club for Growth PAC today announced that it is endorsing former U.S. Attorney John Ratcliffe for U.S. Congress in Texas’s 4th Congressional District. The seat is currently held by seventeen-term incumbent Republican Congressman Ralph Hall. The runoff election will take place on May 27th. 

The Club for Growth PAC is no stranger to Texas elections. In 2012, the Club’s PAC endorsed now-U.S. Senator Ted Cruz in his race against Lt. Governor David Dewhurst. Club members donated nearly $1,000,000 to Cruz’s campaign and the Club’s Super-PAC, Club for Growth Action, spent $5.5 million on behalf of Cruz’s candidacy.   

“John Ratcliffe is a constitutional conservative who will champion economic freedom and individual liberty in Congress,” said Club for Growth President Chris Chocola. “As the mayor of Heath, John Ratcliffe kept taxes and spending low as the population of his city doubled. Like Senator Ted Cruz, John Ratcliffe understands that the big spenders in both parties have led us to $17 trillion in debt, and he’ll stand up for pro-growth policies in Washington. John Ratcliffe isn’t afraid to stand on principle, and we’re proud to stand with John Ratcliffe. The Club for Growth PAC strongly endorses his candidacy and he has the full support of Club members.”
