Spying on our citizens? That's just wrong.
— Matt Rosendale
I don't believe that using inflammatory rhetoric on either side of a debate is productive.
The purpose of the capital formation presentations and roundtable discussions is to create a dialogue with business leaders, economic development organizations, business incubators, and community leaders to promote investment in Montana and support businesses as they start up and/or grow their existing operations.
I refuse to stand by and watch as Sen. Tester tries to implement his radical environmental agenda here and kill our coal industry and destroy thousands of Montana jobs.
I'm witnessing the problems that the federal government is passing down in terms of drones, in violation of our civil liberties, spying on our citizens, death panels in the form of the government taking over the health care system and the national debt they're just saddling our grandchildren with.
I think that freedom of speech is just that, and groups have the right to support or oppose issues that are going to affect them as well as individuals do.
I demonstrated through my work that I can rally other people to support legislation and get it passed.
The tax code is just too big.
I took action to allow Montanans to participate in direct primary care agreements with doctors and authorized the use of health care sharing ministries, both of which provide alternatives for more affordable health care.
Obamacare has made a mess of our health insurance and health care systems, and Washington politicians have failed to fix the problem.
With regards to the Blackfoot Clearwater Stewardship Act, I believe it lacks a balanced approach. It designates 79,000 acres as new wilderness while only opening up 6,000 acres for recreation.
I do not think our security will ever be so effective that we can catch every bad person at the border, nor do I think we can expect our local law enforcement officers to anticipate and stop every violent crime or terrorist act.
Not using fly ash in our highways would just be a plain waste of taxpayers' money, which I find unacceptable. Most people don't realize that without fly ash, many of Montana's infrastructure projects simply would not have been possible - like the Hungry Horse Dam near Glacier National Park.
Like most Montanans, I get pretty upset when I hear about waste.
Liberals from California to Washington are fighting President Trump on illegal immigration.
I've made my career, made money in real estate and real estate development.
I'm a businessman. I'm a former legislator, and I'm an executive. And I've been very effective in each one of those positions.
I'm ready to stand tall for freedom and get Washington out of our lives.
Jon Tester's priorities are with the liberal, extreme minority of Democrats in the Senate unwilling to compromise. He does not have Montana's best interests in mind. He has failed to represent Montanans.
You don't get to choose where you were born; you only get to choose where you live.
What I am is a principled conservative individual who believes in fiscal responsibility.
Let's make sure that we have health care benefits that have been promised to our veterans delivered to them in the communities that they are living in.
When I was 20 years old, if you had a $100 bill and a good idea and a strong work ethic, you could start a company.
It certainly seems to me we would like to bring in the best and the brightest individuals here to participate in this republic.
If you flatten out the tax rates... and you start eliminating the different write-offs that are allowed to take place there, you make it so the special exemptions have gone away. It's better for business, and it's better for Montana.
I advised the insurance companies to apply certain rate adjustments only to plans where the federal government provides assistance in order to save Montanans money and keep rates lower on other plans.
As an avid hunter and outdoorsman, I am blessed to call the bank of the great Yellowstone River outside Glendive my home.
As much as I enjoy hunting the abundant wildlife along the river bottom, my wife and I also take great pleasure in sharing the hunting opportunities on our ranch with so many from our community each year. We understand that community service and shared enjoyment of our great lands is the true Montana tradition.
Millions of people have come to the United States in pursuit of liberty and a better way of life. They contribute to this tremendous melting pot and embrace the opportunities which are presented for them and their families.
Fly ash helps create longer-lasting and stronger concrete for use in roads, bridges, runways, and rail transit.
Health insurance costs in the United States are on an unsustainable path. I've heard from hundreds of Montanans who are paying thousands of dollars every year for their health insurance coverage and thousands more for deductibles before their insurance provides any benefit.
Though I had been born in Maryland, Montana was where I truly belonged.
I've worked the ranch. I've hauled sugar beets from the field.
I tell folks when I walk into a room, when I leave, you may not like me - you may not agree with me - but by golly, you will not misunderstand where I am. I get things done.
I try to use and, furthermore, strive to focus on the actual facts surrounding and impacting any issue.
We have talented people, great businesses, and an unparalleled entrepreneurial spirit in Montana. By raising capital, Montanans can leverage those assets to start new businesses, expand existing ones, and create more good-paying jobs in Missoula and every other community under the Big Sky.
I've always said I would serve where Montanans feel I could be the most effective.
I think that the citizens of Montana are looking for citizen representatives that are willing to place character, common sense, and conservative values before party, big business, or personal enrichment.
We have a very old saying in our household: 'Inspect what you expect.' You hold people accountable, and I use my business background for finding the most efficient and effective solutions to deliver the result we're looking for.
I've shown I have the ability to reduce spending, I've shown I have the ability to reduce onerous regulations, and I've shown that I have the ability to fight for and restore our privacy and our personal freedoms.
I am more than glad to sit down and have a conversation about what is the best way to screen and determine the number of individuals that we should be allowing to come into our country.
Beyond the purposes of self-defense or imminent danger, my Catholic faith teaches me and millions of other Americans that we do not get to decide who lives or who dies; only the good Lord does.
One of the major problems with Obamacare - and another reason it needs to be entirely repealed - is that it prevents Montanans from developing our own, better health care system.
If we allow responsible management of our forests and end the nonsense litigation from radical environmental groups, we can get our timber mills up and running, reduce the risk of wildfires, and ensure healthier forests and cleaner air.
I believe that providing options - not mandates - is the best way to reduce costs and improve the quality of our health care.
It is divisive politics to infringe upon the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens after a national tragedy.
If we can recycle a valuable product that serves an important purpose - and create jobs in the process - then why wouldn't we? Well, that's exactly what fly ash offers.
Too often, real policy improvements get drowned out by political talking points.
I'll fight for more freedom and prosperity for all Montana: we need to send Trump some conservative reinforcing that will end the liberal constriction.
The Trump tax cuts mean business.
