UPDATE: A representative of Congressman Paul Gosar's campaign spoke with the Arizona Mirror after publication of their story to say the congressman would not be attending the white nationalist group's event on April 20. According to the Mirror, Rory McShane said American Populist Union never contacted Gosar, who did not respond to the paper's requests for comment before publication, or his campaign. McShane did not immediately respond to questions from the Mirror about why Gosar promoted his planned appearance at the American Populist Union event on his official Instagram account. This story has been updated. 

Republican Congressman Paul Gosar was announced as a guest at a white nationalist event set for April 20, Hitler's birthday. Gosar promoted this event on social media, but his campaign office told the Arizona Mirror after publication of their initial report that he is not scheduled to attend and doesn't know how he was listed as a guest of honor.
