Arlington, TX — Susan Wright, Republican candidate in the TX-06 special election, released the following statement after House Republicans ousted Rep. Liz Cheney from her post as the chamber’s No. 3 GOP leader on Wednesday:
"House Republicans need to be solely focused on taking back the House in 2022 and fighting against Speaker Pelosi and President Biden’s radical socialist agenda. The role of Conference Chair is disciplined, unified conserative messaging - and Liz Cheney has been a distraction from that Republican mission. In our campaign for TX-06 we know that President Trump’s America First agenda resonates strongly with our voters, and I’m confident our next Conference Chair will successfully deliver that message nationwide as we take back the House in 2022."
Susan Wright has been endorsed by President Donald J. Trump, Club for Growth, Susan B. Anthony List, Maggie's List, VIEWPAC, Young Conservatives of Texas, and Congress Members Andy Biggs, Anthony Garbarino, Chip Roy, Elise Stefanik, Jodey Arrington, Kay Granger, Lance Gooden, Louie Gohmert, Pat Fallon, and Troy Nehls.
Susan has also garnered the support of many local officials, including Arlington Mayor Jeff Williams, Fort Worth Mayor Betsy Price, Tarrant County Sheriff Bill Waybourn, Tarrant County GOP Chair Rick Barnes, State Representatives David Cook, Matt Krause, Stephanie Klick, and Tony Tinderholt, dozens of precinct chairs, and hundreds of local activists.
Susan Wright is the widow of the late Rep. Ron Wright. She has been active in Texas politics for decades, serving members of the state legislature, as committeewoman for the State Republican Executive Committee, and on numerous boards in TX-06.
