July 15, 2026

WASHINGTON – The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) today announced Carlos De La Cruz is being added to the 2026 MAGA Majority program.

“Carlos De La Cruz is the battle-tested fighter Texans deserve in Congress: a proud Air Force veteran, small businessman, husband, and a father who has spent his life taking on America’s enemies from Iraq and Afghanistan to the cartels at our southern border. Carlos will bring San Antonio values, backbone, and America First grit to Congress.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez

Background:

  • Carlos De La Cruz is an Air Force veteran, small businessman, husband, father, and conservative Texan who has spent his life standing up to America’s enemies from Iraq and Afghanistan to the cartels at our southern border.
  • The MAGA Majority program highlights a slate of strong candidates running in key battleground districts across the country who embody the Trump agenda: securing the border, lowering costs, restoring energy dominance, and putting American workers first.
  • The NRCC will provide MAGA Majority candidates with early support, strategic resources, and visibility as Republicans expand the map and go on offense in districts where Democrats are vulnerable.
  • With over a dozen Democrats currently sitting in Trump-won seats, the battlefield is already favorable for Republicans, and the MAGA Majority is designed to capitalize on that opportunity.
  • MAGA Majority is the new name for the NRCC’s long-time Young Guns program.
