John, I thought my days of putting people on the ground were over when I left the NFL. Then January 6th happened.
I was on the House floor when rioters breached the Capitol, and I remember hearing the glass break and the shouts coming closer.
As they pounded on the doors, I texted my wife Aly, who was seven months pregnant with our second son: “Whatever happens, I love you.”
I took off my jacket and got ready to fight anyone who came through the door. Thankfully, it never came to that.
And while I was barricaded on the House floor with my colleagues and our gas masks in hand, Ted Cruz – who had cheered on the mob earlier that day – hid in a supply closet.
Ted Cruz’s false claims about the 2020 election helped incite the insurrection. That's Ted for you: All hat, no cattle.
That day is one of many, many reasons I know Ted Cruz has got to go. People lost their lives, and our government came the closest it ever has to crumbling. His MAGA extremism is bad for Texas and our country, and it’s time to hold him accountable. I’m running to replace Ted Cruz and give Texans the senator we deserve, and I hope you’ll help me do it, John. Will you donate now to me and No Dem Left Behind to help build our grassroots movement and defeat Ted Cruz once and for all? Any amount you can spare is truly appreciated. → |
