HOUSTON, Texas
– This morning during the first stop of the six-day, 28-county
“Cruzin’
to Caucus” Iowa bus tour, Iowa State Senator Jerry Behn endorsed Ted
Cruz for President at King’s Christian Bookstore in Boone, IA.
Behn is the Iowa State Senator from the 24th District and minority
leader in the Iowa Senate. He has served in the Iowa Senate since 1997
and previously served as a Boone County Supervisor from 1995 to 1996.
Behn has been farming for 36 years and is a member of Farm Bureau, Iowa
Soybean Association, and the Iowa Association of Business and Industry.
“Ted Cruz is the proven and consistent Conservative we need in order to
turn this country around,” Behn said. “Americans are looking for a
leader that will stand for conservative principles, fight the
Washington Cartel, and restore the power back to the people. Ted Cruz
is that leader.”
“Jerry is dedicated to God and country, family and farming,” said Cruz.
“He stands for the principles that we all share, principles that this
country was founded on. With Jerry’s leadership it will help unite
courageous Conservative across Iowa to reignite the promise of America.
I am thrilled to have his support.”
Behn and his wife, Denise, live on a farm outside of Boone. They have
two daughters, two sons, and six grandchildren.
