Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is praising First Lady Michelle Obama for not adhering to Saudi Arabia’s dress code for women.
“Kudos to @FLOTUS for standing up for women & refusing to wear Sharia-mandated head-scarf in Saudi Arabia. Nicely done,” the conservative senator tweeted Wednesday with a link to an article about Obama’s attire.
