IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES

mitted the following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on 
Ethics 
RESOLUTION 
Censuring Paul Gosar, Representative of the 9th 
Congressional District of Arizona. 
Whereas, on July 23, 2023, Representative Paul Gosar used 
official House of Representatives resources to commu-
nicate with his constituents in the form of a weekly news-
letter to promote a fringe website that— 
(1) refers to the Holocaust as ‘‘the Holohoax’’ 
throughout their site; 
(2) encourages those who visit the site to ‘‘stand up 
for Hitler’’ multiple times; 
(3) posts and promotes several antisemitic state-
ments and conspiracy theories; and 
(4) promotes baseless and dangerous conspiracy 
theories and rhetoric ranging from Holocaust denial, de-

fending Adolf Hitler, vaccine hesitancy, attacking the 
‘‘deep state’’ including our Nation’s civil servants, and 
promoting antisemitism and racism; 
Whereas, in the days leading up to Representative Gosar 
mentioning this site in his newsletter, there were no 
fewer than four posts on the site promoting extreme and 
antisemitic positions, including— 
(1) a post dated July 22, 2023, stated: ‘‘David Cole, 
a Jew, explores Auschwitz and debunks the claims that 
it was an industrial death camp—still on YouTube for 
now but as more countries outlaw questioning the ‘holo-
caust,’ it is uploaded here in case it is removed to censor 
inconvenient evidence’’; 
(2) a post dated July 21, 2023, stated: ‘‘Making 
Adolf Hitler into a Jewish-controlled agent is quite a bril-
liant plot by International Jewry to divert newcomers 
away from learning the true history and background of 
National Socialism (Slavery). Don’t be fooled! . . . Stand 
up for Hitler and National Socialism (Slavery)!!’’; 
(3) a post dated July 20, 2023, links to and men-
tions a post from another known antisemitic site: ‘‘Un-
true stories exist at each end of Jewish history’s three 
thousand years—fictional, fabricated and of immense 
magnitude . . . Towards the end of the 20th century as 
belief in the origin stories was fading away, the Holohoax 
morphed into a fearsome modern religion, in which belief 
is compulsory’’; and 
(4) a post dated July 17, 2023, stated: ‘‘the Kalergi 
Plan consists of the genocide of white people through 
miscegenation and mass immigration of non-whites to 
Europe. . . . Hitler was aware of Kalergi’s plan and did 
everything in his power to prevent it. Like Gobineau, Hit-
ler considered the Aryan race to be the noblest, the best

armed for the struggle for existence, the most beautiful, 
the most energetic, and the one with the greatest amount 
of creative genius. What this race lost by mixing it was 
not compensated by what the others gained by ennoble-
ment’’; 
Whereas Representative Gosar promoted the site as a part of 
his newsletter’s ‘‘Gosar in the News and Other Must 
Read Stories’’ on July 23, 2023, in addition to two other 
references on April 7, 2023, and August 7, 2022; 
Whereas, in April 2023, the day before Holocaust Remem-
brance 
Day, 
Representative 
Gosar 
promoted 
an 
antisemitic website that featured posts denying the Holo-
caust, praising Adolf Hitler as ‘‘a man of valor,’’ and 
spreading common antisemitic tropes, in response to said 
website publishing an article titled ‘‘Congressman Gosar: 
Jewish warmongers Nuland & Blinken ‘Are Dangerous 
Fools Who Can Get Us All Killed,’ but Representative 
Gosar removed ‘Jewish’ ’’ from the title of the article 
prior to sharing it on social media, indicating a recogni-
tion that the title of the article was antisemitic; 
Whereas Representative Gosar shared a tweet in October 
2022 that read, ‘‘Pray for Kanye West. They will throw 
everything they have at him simply for speaking the 
truth’’ in response to Mr. West sharing Nazi imagery, in-
cluding a swastika, threatening violence against Jewish 
people, and engaging in hateful stereotypes regarding 
Jewish people; 
Whereas Representative Gosar has on several occasions pub-
licly supported and appeared alongside self-described 
White nationalists, including Holocaust denier Nick 
Fuentes, at public conferences and events;

Whereas Representative Gosar has routinely sought out sup-
port, advice, and assistance from, and provided employ-
ment and the corresponding gains and benefits therein 
to, individuals and groups with alleged ties to antisemitic, 
neo-Nazi, and other extremist groups; 
Whereas Representative Gosar frequently engaged in these 
activities using resources, including funds, technology, 
and personnel, provided by the House of Representatives 
at taxpayer expense; 
Whereas Representative Gosar has demonstrated a clear pat-
tern of engaging in antisemitism and extremism and has 
not demonstrated any remorse or indicated any willing-
ness to change the course of his actions; 
Whereas Representative Gosar’s activities promote hate when 
antisemitic incidents are at an all-time high in the United 
States, with the Anti-Defamation League’s Audit of 
Antisemitic Incidents finding that the year 2022 had the 
highest number on record since beginning to track in 
1979; 
Whereas the right to free speech, which all Representatives 
are committed to defending, does not provide a justifica-
tion for a Representative to use his or her platform to 
contribute to the spread of hate; 
Whereas the leadership of the Republican Party has failed to 
hold Representative Gosar to account while claiming to 
support the Jewish-American community and counter 
antisemitism; 
Whereas Representative Gosar’s actions tarnish the honor of 
the House of Representatives and must not be tolerated;

in the well of the House of Representatives for the
