Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ): ‘This Country Is Going to Be Saved at the State Level'

2022-01-04

[Breitbart] Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) told Breitbart News in an exclusive interview that he believes "this country is going to be saved at the state level," which is why the House Freedom Caucus (HFC) recently announced its intention to establish versions of the Freedom Caucus throughout state legislatures.

"We put this together, this idea, about a year ago, and have been working on it," Biggs told Breitbart News at Turning Point USA’s recent AmericaFest conference in Phoenix, Arizona.

"There will be a separate unit, legally, and they’re going to — help provide communication and liaison between state legislative HFCs, and then federal HFC," the congressman explained.

"We think that this country is going to be saved at the state level, so we want to be able to provide the support that they need," Biggs said. "We want them to know what the FEDs are doing, and we want to hear what they’re doing and what their issues are so we can have better communication to try to fix what’s going on in Congress that affects negatively the states."

Biggs added that he believes the Freedom Caucuses will be the future of the Republican Party, "which is already a more right-leaning Party than it has been."

"I think we have a chance to really change the dialog, and the trajectory of the Republican Party long-term," he said. "And that really is the vision that I have and that the Freedom Caucuses have."

After being asked if he thinks the White House putting pressure on Big Tech to silence American citizens is a violation of the First Amendment, Biggs said, "That’s fascism, because they’re using big business to implement big government and anti-Constitutional policies."

#1 "State Level" salvation? A valiant effort, but it didn't work so well at Chickamauga in '63. Sadly, I feel the American experiment with federally imposed communism will have to play itself out. I hope and pray I am once again, wrong.
