American politician

Cathie Louise Adams (born January 8, 1950) is a Texas politician. She served as party chair of the Republican Party of Texas from October 2009 to June 2010.

In April 2016, Adams broke with Phyllis Schlafly over Schlafly's endor*t on March 11 of Donald Trump for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. Adams instead supported U.S. Senator Ted Cruz of Texas, Trump's principal challenger whom Adams considers a more conservative choice. Adams subsequently lost the race for vice-chairman in 2016 to Amy Clark of Floresville, south of San Antonio. In*bent chairman Tom Mechler of Amarillo retained his post after opponent Jared Woodfill of Houston withdrew before final balloting.
