Why revoking Ted Cruz’s James Madison Award isn’t anti-conservative
When Sen. Ted Cruz ’92 (R-Texas) supported the lie of a stolen election and led a group of senators to object to electoral votes, he broke his oath of office, hurt our Republic, and in no insignificant way aided and abetted the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. As a result of his actions, Whig-Clio members are considering revoking the James Madison Award (JMA) he received from the Society in 2016.
