Ted Cruz

In the game of chicken, Chuck Schumer won this game of chicken. As two trucks drove towards each other on a country road, one or the other was going to turn, or you were going to have a lot of dead chickens. I wish Republicans hadn`t…

President Biden has repeatedly pledged that the democrats would not increase taxes on anyone making less than $400,000.00 a year, and yet this Bernie Sanders socialist budget does exactly that.

Inflation is rising at its fastest pace in three decades, and it is making it harder to make ends meet.

Perhaps worst of all, the Democrats' tax plan would embolden Washington to pick winners and losers rather than allowing entrepreneurs to meet the needs of American consumers.

The Democrats' tax plan would also drive jobs for American workers overseas.

It would increase the size and scope of the Federal Government.

Let's be clear--the major winners from the Democrats' plan are special interests and beltway bureaucrats.

President Biden and the democrats so-called Build Back Better Act, as reported by Ways and Means is estimated to reduce long-run GDP by .98 percent, which in today's dollars amounts to about 332 billion dollars of lost output annually each…

Nord Stream 2 is a bad deal for Germany and for Europe.

Russia has certainly come close to using energy as a weapon.

I have imposed holds on a number of nominees at both the State Department and the Treasury Department in an effort to force the Biden administration to comply with the law and stop the Nord Stream 2 pipeline.

The odds of Russian tanks rolling into Ukraine will have increased dramatically, and my colleagues on the Democratic side of the aisle know that.

The Senate is going to be debating today sanctions on Vladimir Putin's Nord Stream 2 pipeline.

My and Senator Merkley's Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act would go a long way to end the financial incentives for the CCP's oppression of the Uyghurs.

The United States supports and promotes the rules-based international order founded on respect for sovereignty, the rule of law, open markets, private sector-led economic growth, the free flow of commerce and information, and freedom of…

If confirmed, I would leverage Argentina's proud heritage of leadership on human rights and democracy and membership at the U.N. Human Rights Council to encourage strong public stands in support of democratic institutions and against human…

I have long believed China poses the single-greatest geopolitical threat to the United States for the next century.

I have long advocated there is great virtue to clarity in foreign policy.

I think one of the most important steps we can and should take to stand with Taiwan is help prepare and equip them to defend themselves.
