Today, U.S. Congressman Paul A. Gosar, D.D.S. (AZ-04) released the following statement  after the American Conservative Union Foundation (ACUF) released their 2016 scorecard which gave the Congressman an 100% score for his “commitment to conservative values:”

“It’s easy to get lost in the political double talk from politicians these days. That’s why I always ask constituents to judge me by my results, not my speeches. For this reason, I am especially proud to be recognized by the American Conservative Union Foundation for having a perfect Conservative voting record that reflects the principals of limited government and individual liberty. The ACUF understands that bold action from Congress is the only way to solve real problems with Conservative solutions.”

(From the American Conservative Union Foundation)
ACUF researched and selected a range of bills before Congress that determine a member’s adherence to conservative principles. We selected bills that focus on Ronald Reagan’s philosophy of the “three-legged stool”: 1) fiscal and economic: taxes, budgets, regulation, spending, healthcare, and property; 2) social and cultural: 2nd amendment, religion, life, welfare, and education; and 3) National Security: preserving our nation’s security by maintaining a strong national defense. The wide range of issues covered are designed to give citizens an accurate assessment of how Members of Congress best defend the principles of a free society: Life, Liberty, and Property.
