Endorsements are Rolling In…

Posted on by

Paul Sadler is gaining significant endorsements from major newspapers across Texas!

Just this weekend, the Austin American-Statesman endorsed Paul, saying,

“Sadler, an attorney from Henderson in East Texas, was a member of the Texas House from 1991 to 2003. During those dozen years in the Legislature, he developed a reputation for tackling challenges with intensity, focus and bipartisan effectiveness. His was a frequent name on Texas Monthly’s list of 10 best legislators.”

Texans Deserve Better

Posted on by

Tea Party extremist Ted Cruz is refusing to find time for more debates/forums with Paul Sadler, but apparently he is okay with making early commitments to Washington lobbyists.

Without even looking at the specifics of any legislation and issues that the Senate will face over the next six years, Cruz has made commitments to special interest groups on K Street.

“He has become the very thing he criticized for a year when he ran against the Lt. Governor. He’s dodging debates. He’s dodging the media.

Posted on by

Paul Sadler, Democratic nominee for the United States Senate, pledged to push for continued funding for the schoolchildren of Texas. He expressed opposition to Ted Cruz’s radical plan that would eliminate the Department of Education, which includes cut to vital programs such as Federal Student Aid, the Council on Women and Girls, and the TEACH Campaign.


“
Ted Cruz wants to abolish the Department of Education,” said Sadler. “Let’s put it in a backdrop of what just happened in Texas. The Legislature just cut $5.2 billion out of public education. To eliminate the Dept. of Education federally would cost Texas between five and six billion dollars.
