TED CRUZ: I’m PROUD to stand with Gov. Mike Pence!
U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, issued the following statement today in support of Governor Mike Pence’s effort to defend religious liberty and protect against the government forcing individuals to violate their deeply held beliefs:
“I want to commend Governor Mike Pence for his support of religious freedom, especially in the face of fierce opposition. There was a time, not too long ago, when defending religious liberty enjoyed strong bipartisan support. Alas, today we are facing a concerted assault on the First Amendment, on the right of every American to seek out and worship God according to the dictates of his or her conscience. Governor Pence is holding the line to protect religious liberty in the Hoosier State. Indiana is giving voice to millions of courageous conservatives across this country who are deeply concerned about the ongoing attacks upon our personal liberties. I’m proud to stand with Mike, and I urge Americans to do the same.”
On the flip side, Scott Walker took the more ‘it’s not my issue’ approach:
Wild Thing’s comment………
Good for Tex Cruz and Mike Pence. BOOM! No compromise. No fear. That’s the way you do it! Proud, Loud, and no Egos!’ Cruz is not wishy washy and you know where he stands on major issues.
Walker disappointing.
