Millionaire Tea Party Rep. Paul Gosar Claims He Ain’t Wealthy

During a recent town hall meeting, tea party favorite Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ), elected during last year’s Republican wave in the U.S. House of Representatives, told a group of constituents that he wasn’t really wealthy.

“I ain’t wealthy,” he said, according to video of the event. “… I live just like the rest of you folks.”

His mandatory financial disclosures reveal otherwise: specifically, that Gosar’s net worth is over $2 million. He also earns a yearly salary of approximately $174,000 as a member of Congress.

Paper wealth or not, he doesn't live like the rest of us.
