Challenging the Status Quo: Dr. Gosar is an active member and leader in the House Freedom Caucus. This extremely conservative organization is comprised of approximately 40 members dedicated to defending our Constitution, stopping business as usual and holding Congressional leadership accountable to the American people.

The Constitution: Dr. Gosar believes that our Constitution is the greatest governing document in our our nation’s history and that this sacred charter is the cornerstone of our Constitutional Republic.

Cutting Spending and Oversight: During his relatively short tenure in Congress, Dr. Gosar has passed 79 amendments through the House. The majority of these amendments were focused on eliminating waste, fraud and abuse within a bloated federal government. In the last three years alone, Dr. Gosar’s amendments that have passed the House have cut or prevented more than $1.6 billion in wasteful government spending.

Defense: America’s national security is of utmost importance and as a constitutionalist, Dr. Gosar believes that providing for the common defense is the government’s core responsibility. Dr. Gosar is a strong supporter of our troops and has consistently voted to provide our men and women in uniform with the resources they need to successfully accomplish their missions.

Economy and Jobs: Dr. Gosar has been heavily focused on fostering an environment for job creation and economic growth. Paul believes that the government doesn’t create jobs and that one of the best things Congress can do is get big government out of the way by reducing unnecessary regulatory burdens and unshackling job creators.

Gosar's campaign website listed the following issues:[15]

Second Amendment

Excerpt: "As a gun owner and member of the NRA, I have done and will do everything I can to ensure that the federal government does not infringe on the right to bear arms. The right to bear arms is not only enjoyed by millions of Americans for recreation, but our Founders recognized that it was critical to include this right as the Second Amendment to our Constitution in order to allow individuals to protect themselves, their families, and properties."

Health Care

Excerpt: "As a health care provider for over twenty-five years and a member of the Doctors Caucus, Gosar has led the charge in the House to reform the health care system and put forth free market solutions to increase access and decrease costs to the consumer."

Taxes

Excerpt: "We must work together to restore common sense, no-nonsense values back to Washington before we lose this Republic all together."

Immigration

Excerpt: "The Federal Government has completely failed its constitutional, legal and moral duty to secure our borders. As a member of the House Oversight and Government Reform Subcommittee on National Security, Homeland Defense, and Foreign Operations, Gosar has held the Obama Administration’s feet to the fire over its failures to protect the citizens of Arizona and our country"

Energy

Excerpt: "Energy independence is a must. It is a matter of national security. Arizona is rich with natural resources and has diverse climates that make our state well-equipped for an energy driven economic recovery."
