| By U.S. Senator Ted Cruz The Red River Army Depot is critical to Texarkana and the economy of Northeast Texas, serving as a major contributor to jobs, investment, and the community. I am proud to have led the effort to modernize the Red River Amy Depot, turning it into the premier location for drone manufacturing and lithium extraction. We need an army that’s not just ready to fight the enemies of today, but also the enemies of tomorrow. I want to thank the servicemembers for all of their hard work, and for keeping Texas and the United States strong.

I am proud to work hard every day to support continued growth in Texas and American jobs and businesses.
