U.S. Senator Ted Cruz Honored With TIPRO’s Hats Off Award for Championing Texas’ Oil & Gas Industry

  • Print

Austin, Texas – During the Texas Independent Producers and Royalty Owners Association’s (TIPRO) 80th Annual Convention in Houston this week, TIPRO proudly recognized the Honorable Ted Cruz, U.S. senator representing Texas, as the 2026 TIPRO Hats Off Award honoree. The award was presented to Senator Cruz for his efforts advancing policies maintaining the strength and vitality of the state’s oil and natural gas industry.

 
“On behalf of TIPRO and its members, we are pleased to present our Hats Off Award this year to Senator Cruz for his leadership in Congress and his longstanding support of the oil and gas industry,” remarked Ed Longanecker, president of TIPRO. “Since he was first elected to the U.S. Senate in 2012, Senator Cruz has authored key legislation that is helping to secure our energy future and ensure American energy independence. In his time in office, the senator has made oil and natural gas issues a priority. Notably, he has also worked to defend our industry from burdensome federal regulations and government overreach that undermines domestic energy production, job creation and our national energy security, particularly during the Biden Administration. Senator Cruz truly understands the importance of energy production to the Texas economy and how essential energy independence for the United States is.”
 
In the current 119th Congress, Senator Cruz has continued to be a leading voice for American energy dominance and on repeated occasions stood up for America’s energy workers. He has spearheaded legislation like the Natural Gas Export Expansion Act and the Protect LNG Act, amongst other significant oil and gas policies, which will benefit Texas energy producers and solidify America’s energy leadership.
 
“I was honored to receive the Hats Off Award from the Texas Independent Producers and Royalty Owners Association,” commented Senator Cruz. “I’m proud to stand with the men and women that fuel Texas energy and empower American energy dominance.”
