I have known Ed Stafman for many years, as a friend and through our connection in the Gallatin Valley Interfaith Association. I believe his varied experience, as a lawyer, civic volunteer and rabbi will bring some needed skills to the Legislature. Ed focuses on finding common ground in relationships. When people disagree with him, he […]

At a time when we are coping with a pandemic, concerns over women’s reproductive rights, affordable healthcare, racial injustice and access to public lands, I am appalled at Greg Gianforte’s ads for governor that only seem concerned with his NRA rating and the further promulgation of guns. This is not what I call leadership! I […]

I believe that character counts! Character traits such as honesty, thoughtfulness, humility, empathy for others, work ethics and ethical personal behavior are among those traits that are common to those who are respected and rewarded and recognized in successful businesses and professions. Politicians should reflect the same character traits that are expected in the rest […]

Less taxes sounds like a great platform, but it does have consequences: less services. There will be less money for public schools that are the heart and soul of Montana’s communities. Will this mean higher taxes to make up the difference? There will be less money for the Montana University System? Will this mean higher […]

Montanans’ right to hunt and camp on our majestic lands, as well as our right to fish in our pristine rivers is in jeopardy. We live in the bosom of nature and as American citizens it should be our prerogative to enjoy it without the threat of lawsuits from the wealthy. Sen. Steve Daines doesn’t […]

Are you tired of uncertainty, doubt and divisiveness? Are you searching for integrity and truth? I have good news for you: Ed Stafman is running for election in HD62 and he is a breath of fresh air.

This election season is our moment of truth. The most corrupt president in American history is shredding our Constitution and waging war against our nation’s founding principles of freedom, justice and domestic tranquility. A draft-dodging coward, he mocks as “losers” and “suckers” our family members and friends who died on battlefields fighting for our freedoms. […]

Marc Raciot, former Montana governor and chairman of George W. Bush’s re-election campaign, recently stated publicly that character is essential in a public official. He mentioned patience and humility; other important traits are honesty and putting people above partisan politics. If you are looking for these traits in Congress, then your clear choice for our […]

Greg Gianforte claims that his enormous wealth and business success makes him a “job-creator” who will be good for the economy. But his record shows exactly the opposite. Gianforte and his allies’ ongoing failure to deal with the covid crisis resulted in a catastrophic loss of jobs and the worst economic crisis since the Great […]

It’s exciting when smart young people run for office who have the curiosity, enthusiasm and grit needed for serving us in state government. I enthusiastically support Alice Buckley for  representative in HD63. Alice is well-versed in policies and issues and has a passion for justice and good government – working for the jobs, housing and […]
