U.S. Chamber of Commerce endorses Ted Cruz for Senate over Colin Allred

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce recently made headlines by endorsing Senator Ted Cruz in his reelection campaign after endorsing his Democratic challenger in past cycles. This move came as a surprise to many as the pro-business group has historically supported Republican candidates.

In the past, the Chamber endorsed U.S. Rep. Colin Allred, D-Dallas, in his competitive races in 2020 and 2022, citing his bipartisan approach and support for pro-business policies. Allred’s campaign often highlights these endorsements as a testament to his ability to work across party lines.

Both Cruz and Allred have been actively campaigning, leveraging their legislative records to appeal to voters. Despite Cruz’s reputation as a polarizing figure, he has emphasized his bipartisan efforts and accomplishments as a member of the Senate Commerce Committee.

Meanwhile, Allred’s campaign has emphasized his strong ties with both business interests and labor unions, positioning him as a champion for Texas workers. The race between Cruz and Allred is shaping up to be a close one, with recent polls showing a tight race between the two candidates.

Ultimately, both candidates are focused on showcasing their achievements and garnering support from various sectors of the Texas electorate. The upcoming election will undoubtedly be a closely watched and competitive affair.

Disclosure: University of Houston and US Chamber of Commerce have been financial supporters of The Texas Tribune, a nonprofit, nonpartisan news organization that is funded in part by donations from members, foundations, and corporate sponsors. Financial supporters play no role in the Tribune’s journalism. Find a complete list of them here.
