New: U.S. Rep. Colin Allred announced Wednesday he is challenging U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz for reelection.
posted on social media. The video touted Allred's life story and congressional record — and took multiple shots at Cruz, including over his role leading up to the Jan. 6 insurrection and the trip to Cancun during the 2021 winter freeze.
Cruz spokesperson Nick Maddux called Allred"too extreme for Texas," citing his faithful voting record with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Allred went after Cruz’s celebrity status in his announcement, saying “he’ll do anything to get on Fox News but can’t be bothered to help keep rural Texas hospitals open.”
Allred is likely to face primary competition. State Sen. Roland Gutierrez, D-San Antonio, is likely to run but not expected to make any announcement until after the current legislative session, which ends May 29.
