About Paul Gosar

DR. PAUL GOSAR, DDS

Dr. Paul Gosar is a conservative Republican representing Arizona’s Ninth Congressional District and currently serving in his sixth term. Due to redistricting, Dr. Paul Gosar is currently running for Arizona’s Ninth Congressional District.

After 25 years as a dentist and watching Arizona middle-class families and small businesses struggle under Washington Democrats’ job-killing agenda, Dr. Gosar decided it was time to make a difference. In 2010 he ran for Congress against an incumbent Democrat – and won. Determined to stand up for Arizona families, Dr. Gosar has continued to challenge the status quo, offer common sense solutions, fight against liberals and Special Interests, and often, stand up to his own party.

Dr. Gosar knows that Arizona families want more freedom and less government. He believes that the Constitution is the greatest governing document in world history and that this sacred charter is the cornerstone of our Republic.

As a member of Congress, he is focused on fighting for the interests of the people of Arizona. By repealing burdensome regulations and fostering an environment for economic growth, he’s working to create more jobs for our families. He’s working to keep our families safe by securing the border and ending the influx of illegal immigration. And he’s reforming government by cutting federal spending and forcing accountability.

Dr. Gosar is a devout family man and cherishes Arizona’s culture of family values. He and his wife Maude have been married for more than 30 years and have three children.
