Montanans shouldn’t be fooled by Tim Sheehy’s cowboy hat, his hobby ranch, or his phony rhetoric.
Fluffy promises and vague talking points don’t qualify you to serve in the US Senate. It is widely known that Sheehy was hand-picked by the Washington DC Republican establishment, and he will vote exactly the way Mitch McConnell tells him to. He is going to support Trump’s 10% import tax, which nonpartisan economists say will hit every single Montanan to the tune of $1,700 a year, and cut taxes for billionaires.
He will vote to slash federal funding for Montana’s roads and schools while his party bosses send the money to Florida and Texas instead. And Sheehy has even admitted that he wants to end federal protections for Montana’s public lands, closing off our public access so that his big oil friends can get rich.
Tim Sheehy loves to talk, but talk is cheap. Even if he wanted to do what’s right for Montana, everyone knows that he is going to do what he’s told to do by his Capitol Hill bosses. He is going to get rolled, and Montanans will pay the price. We can’t afford to send an inexperienced novice to the Senate at this crucial time. Montana needs a proven leader like Jon Tester who has a clear record of fighting for what’s right and protecting our interests at the national level.
