This November, I’ll be voting pro-life. Pro-ALL life, from algae to zooplankton, ants to elephants. In the Old Testament, we read: “I call heaven and earth to witness against you today, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and curse. Therefore choose life, that you and your offspring may live,” Good advice, […]

It’s time for change in the Public Service Commission: For too long the commission has propped up costly Colstrip units while passing on the costs in the form of rate increases to consumers while lowering rates for corporations. The commission has tried to quash use of renewables like solar and wind which are cleaner and […]

Our adversary and former KGB officer is getting just what he bargained for in his efforts to divide our country. Until we all come to the conclusion that our enemy is not Republican or Democrat, but instead our lifelong adversary Russia, who has weaponized social media.

As a two-term representative in the Montana House of Representatives, Chris Pope has worked hard to represent Bozeman, its citizens and taxpayers, as an advocate for public education, small business development, maintaining infrastructure, clean energy development and support for Native American communities across the state.

Montana deserves an attorney general who will represent the people of Montana. Raph Graybill already has proven he will do this as evidenced by his time as chief legal counsel to Gov. Bullock.

If we elect Trump again, we’re the suckers, losers Having had the privilege to doctor and befriend ex-POWs for 10 years, seven years of which included all vets from WWII, Korea, Vietnam and the first Iraq War, I can say with certainty they don’t fit Donald Trump’s definition of “suckers and losers.” Rather, Trump fits […]

Public schools are at the core of communities small and large, rural and city throughout Montana. As superintendent of public instruction, especially during this challenging time, Montana needs leadership, experience, innovation and a passion for educating youth. In Melissa Romano, voters have an opportunity to elect the best qualified candidate for this position. As 2018 […]
