Today, U.S. Congressman Paul A. Gosar, D.D.S. (AZ-04) released the following statement after Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-OH) announced his resignation from Congress effective at the end of October:
“Speaker John Boehner served the people of Ohio and this nation with a full heart. I have the utmost respect for him as he helped regain the Speaker’s gavel for Republicans, essentially putting the brakes on the Obama Administration. He is a good man and I wish him happiness as he moves into the next chapter of his life.
“At this pivotal moment for our nation, we need bold, Conservative leadership that will install a legislative process with integrity and accountability. The American people have been calling for a return to regular order and a break from the status quo in D.C. ever since they elected a Republican majority back in 2010. This was the catalyst for my decision to run for office and has been my top priority since day one. Unfortunately, the actions from Republican leadership did not reflect the will of the American people and a change was clearly needed. I look forward to working with my House colleagues to ensure these priorities are represented in our new leadership.”
