Neil Bush, brother of Jeb and George W., is joining Texas Sen. Ted Cruz's national finance team.

He and his wife are among several new members the Cruz camp announced Tuesday:

• Neil and Maria Bush, Houston

• Dick and Meg Weekley – Houston

• John and Ann Bookout – Houston

• Ashley Keller – Chicago

• Don and Mary Catherine Huffines – Dallas

• Phillip and Holly Huffines – Dallas

• Cecilia and Dr. Jim Leininger – San Antonio

“We are seeing incredible momentum around our campaign,” Cruz said in a statement. “I am thrilled to welcome these new members to our outstanding team. This race is winnowing down between two candidates and this is further testament that conservatives are continuing to unite behind this campaign.”

The campaign touted picking off former supporters of Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul and former Texas governor Rick Perry, as well as from Jeb Bush, the former Florida governor.

The campaign said it has raised $1.5 million since Cruz won caucuses Saturday in Maine and Kansas, bringing its total raised to date to $70 million.
