Sen. Ted Cruz's (R-Texas) office on Tuesday announced the senator will launch a new headquarters for his "Saving Texas" initiative following major losses in his state during last week's midterm elections.
In a statement from Cruz released by his communications director on X, the senator said a Cruz-aligned nonprofit office will open in the state capital, Austin, to establish Republican infrastructure designed to win future elections.
"Texas is my home. It's where I've raised my family, where I've fought for conservative principles, and where I've had the extraordinary honor of representing 32 million Texans in the United States Senate," his statement said.
Efforts would include "recruiting strong candidates who share our principles, rebuilding the grassroots infrastructure that has powered Republican victories for decades, and raising the resources necessary to compete in every corner of our state."
Cruz is now one of the few statewide elected GOP officials in the state after Democrats were able to capture the governor's office, replace the lieutenant governor, attorney general, comptroller, and one seat on the railroad commission, and win a U.S. Senate seat during the Nov. 3 election.
Democrat James Talarico won against his GOP opponent, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton, during the election, becoming the first Democrat to win a Senate seat for the state since 1988.
