Gosar on Big Beautiful Bill

The House of Representatives has passed the so-called "big beautiful bill" by a narrow margin on strict party lines, with 215 votes in favor and 214 votes against it. Representative Paul Gosar (R-AZ) celebrated its passage in a statement, saying, "I look forward to the Senate quickly passing and President Trump signing into law this historic legislation, so Americans can begin receiving the much-needed relief this bill ensures."

"Following the four disastrous years of the failed and corrupt Biden administration that created historic inflation, destroyed our economy, and welcomed nearly 20 million illegal aliens into our country, I am very pleased to have voted in favor of legislation advancing President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill," Rep. Gosar began.

Governor Katie Hobbs: Washington politicians have made their priorities clear: they want to rip health care away from thousands of Arizonans and raise costs for working people to give tax cuts to big corporations and people who are already wealthy. Arizonans deserve better.

State Representative Nick Kupper: Our laws, or lack thereof, have real world consequences.

State Representative John Gillette: This Bill will remove the fraudsters from medicaid, saving millions in healthcare costs for all Arizonans. The dems still blame the GOP.... but the governor vetoed our bills to stop the fraud.

State Representative Walt Blackman: Kosovo in the mid to late ’90s was a shooting war—and I was there with my first Tank Commander, SSG Ron Bickel. He didn’t just lead—he forged Soldiers under fire. His example shaped everything I became as a leader, Tank Commander, and NCO. Calm, fearless, and always mission-first. The gold standard of leadership. #KFOR #ArmyLeadership #CombatTested
