This week, a report revealed that Congress wasted billions on earmarks hidden in a massive spending bill negotiated behind closed doors, as stated by an analysis by Open the Books. The analysis highlighted that 27 House Freedom Caucus members, including Gosar, refused earmarks, emphasizing that every dime of these earmarks was borrowed from future generations on the national debt, calling it a "moral outrage."

Gosar stirred controversy by cosponsoring legislation to rename Dulles International Airport after President Trump, triggering backlash from the Left. Defending his stance, Gosar expressed, "I can see no more fitting recognition than naming both airports in our nation’s capital after two of America’s best presidents." He criticized the hypocrisy of Leftists who opposed the renaming while celebrating similar actions in the past.

During the Easter district work period, Gosar met with various groups, including Lennox representatives and Building Homes for Heroes, where U.S. Army Private First Class Adam Sampson was gifted a mortgage-free home. Gosar expressed gratitude for heroes like Sampson, stating, "Welcome home, Adam!"

In response to the Biden administration's fine on Grand Canyon University, Gosar demanded an investigation into the politically motivated actions against the university. He emphasized, "The Department of Education should recognize GCU’s lawful nonprofit status and end the politically motivated actions against the university."

Amidst receiving thousands of letters, Gosar addressed concerns raised by citizens, including Steven S. who highlighted the importance of upholding constitutional rights. Gosar affirmed his commitment to defending these rights, stating, "I will never support unconstitutional efforts to restrict gun ownership."

In conclusion, Gosar's actions and statements this week reflect his dedication to fiscal responsibility, honoring heroes, defending constitutional rights, and advocating for fair treatment of educational institutions.
