Ted Cruz Instagram – Today, March 2nd is Texas Independence Day.
188 years ago, we declared our independence from Mexico and fought for liberty.
In the fight for our independence, many brave Texians laid down their lives at the Alamo, including William B. Travis, James Bowie, and Davy Crockett.
They risked everything to make liberty a reality for generations of Texans to come.
It is fitting that Texas independence coincides with our first president’s birthday — Sam Houston was born on March 2, 1793.
Houston was a tireless, talented leader, and a great statesman who believed in freedom.
His words, “govern wisely and as little as possible” are still true today, and the Lone Star State still follows this principle. | Posted on 03/Mar/2024 05:45:13
