Rafael Edward "
Ted" Cruz (born
December 22,
1970) is an
American politician who is the junior
U.S. Senator from
Texas. He is a member of the
Republican party, and a candidate for
President of the United States in the
2016 presidential election.
Born in
Calgary, Alberta, Canada to an
American mother and Cuban father,
Cruz attended elementary and high school in and around
Houston, graduated from
Princeton University in
1992, and then from
Harvard Law School in
1995. Between
1999 and
2003, Cruz was the director of the
Office of Policy Planning at the
Federal Trade Commission, an associate deputy attorney general at the
United States Department of Justice, and domestic policy advisor to
President George W. Bush on the
2000 George W. Bush presidential campaign. He served as
Solicitor General of Texas from 2003 to 2008, appointed by
Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott. He was the first
Hispanic, and the longest-serving solicitor general in
Texas history. Cruz was also an adjunct professor of law from 2004 to 2009 at the
University of Texas School of Law in
Austin, where he taught
U.S. Supreme Court litigation.
Cruz ran for the
Senate seat vacated by fellow Republican
Kay Bailey Hutchison, and in July
2012 defeated
Lieutenant Governor David Dewhurst during the
Republican primary runoff, 57%–43%. Cruz then defeated former state
Representative Paul Sadler in the
November 2012 general election, winning 56%–41%. He is the first
Hispanic American to serve as a
U.S. senator representing Texas, and is one of three Senators of Cuban descent. Cruz chairs the
United States Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Oversight,
Federal Rights and
Agency Activities, and is also the chairman of the United States Senate
Commerce Subcommittee on
Space, Science and Competitiveness. In November 2012, he was appointed vice-chairman of the
National Republican Senatorial Committee.
Cruz began campaigning for the Republican presidential nomination in
March 2015.
