ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

U.S. Senate Candidate Ted Cruz (R-TX) First Candidate to Sign
Contract From America in 2012 Cycle
HOUSTON, TEXAS – The Contract from America Foundation announced today that U.S.
Senate candidate Ted Cruz (R-TX) has joined over 70 currently elected Senators and
Congressmen nationwide by listening to the wishes of his constituents and signing the
“Contract from America,” a Main Street, tea party-driven legislative blueprint for 2011 and
beyond. He is the first to do so in the nation for the 2012 election cycle.
Ryan Hecker, one of the organizers of the Contract from America, elaborated: “Ted Cruz, by
signing the Contract from America, has shown himself to be a true champion of Main Street and
tea party values. He has illustrated that, if elected, he will listen to his constituents and be a
true grassroots conservative leader in the Senate. We are especially glad that Ted is the first
candidate to sign the Contract in the 2012 cycle.”
In signing this bottom-up call for economic conservative and good governance reform, Ted Cruz
stated: “I am happy to be the first 2012 candidate in the nation to sign the Contract from
America to protect the Constitution, demand a balanced budget amendment, and defend the
free market.”
The Contract from America is not a list handed down from on high by old-bull politicians, but
one handed up from the true grassroots in this country. After garnering nearly half a million
votes in less than two months, the Contract from America is a blueprint that will serve notice
to public officials about what the people want for their future.
When voting was completed, the top ten planks in the Contract from America were: (1) Protect
the Constitution; (2) Reject Cap and Trade; (3) Demand a Balanced Budget; (4) Enact
Fundamental Tax Reform; (5) Restore Fiscal Responsibility and Constitutionally Limited
Government in Washington; (6) End Runaway Government Spending; (7) Defund, Repeal, and
Replace Government-run Health Care; (8) Pass an ‘All-of-the-Above” Energy Policy; (9) Stop
the Pork; and (10) Stop the Tax Hikes.
More information about the candidates who have signed this Main Street Agenda is available at
the Contract from America’s website, www.contractfromamerica.org.
