Cruz throws support behind Roy Moore in Alabama Senate race

Source: The Hill | October 24, 2017 | Brett Samuels

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) is throwing his support behind Alabama Senate candidate Roy Moore (R) ahead of the December special election.

Cruz praised Moore in a post on his website Tuesday, portraying the former Alabama Supreme Court chief justice as a constitutional conservative.

“[Voters] can choose a liberal Democrat, who will stand with Charles Schumer to raise taxes, weaken our military, open our border, and undermine our constitutional rights. Or, they can choose to elect Judge Roy Moore, a conservative who will proudly defend Alabama values,” Cruz wrote.

Cruz also praised Moore’s “lifelong passion for the Constitution and Bill of Rights.”

Cruz is the latest conservative GOP senator to back Moore ahead of the special election Dec. 12, when Moore faces off against Democrat Doug Jones.

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) endorsed Moore last week, saying the judge has “spent a lifetime defending and standing up for the Constitution,” and Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah) also endorsed Moore.

    This December, the People of Alabama have a clear choice.

    They can choose a liberal Democrat, who will stand with Chuck Schumer to raise taxes, weaken our military, open our border, and undermine our constitutional rights. Or, they can choose to elect Judge Roy Moore, a conservative who will proudly defend Alabama values.

    I strongly urge the voters to elect Judge Roy Moore. Judge Moore has a lifelong passion for the Constitution and the Bill of Rights, and he has the courage of his convictions.

    In the Senate, we need reinforcements; we desperately need strong conservatives who will stand up to the Washington status quo.

    Please join me in supporting Judge Moore on December 12.

    For Liberty,

    Ted Cruz
