Family Values: Strong Homes, Strong Montana

Family Values: Strong Homes, Strong Montana

Family Values: Strong Homes, Strong Montana

Montana’s strength starts with strong families, strong churches, and strong communities. Protecting traditional values and religious liberty keeps our small towns safe, our kids grounded, and our future secure.

  • Support faith-based and community organizations that serve families, not bury them in red tape
  • Oppose curriculum and policies that undermine parents’ moral and religious beliefs
  • Promote local mentoring, marriage, and addiction-recovery initiatives across rural and urban Montana 

Stand with me to defend Montana’s timeless values and keep our families at the center of public policy.

Skyrocketing property taxes are forcing seniors, young families, and long-time landowners to choose between groceries and their homes. No one should be taxed out of Montana. 

  • Cap year-over-year property tax increases and require voter approval for major hikes
  • Prioritize permanent, structural tax relief over temporary rebates and gimmicks
  • Push local and state governments to cut waste before raising taxes a single dollar 

Join me to put the brakes on runaway property taxes and keep Montanans in their homes.

Public Lands Access with True Stewardship

Family Values: Strong Homes, Strong Montana

Secure Elections, Restored Voter Confidence

Montanans cherish hunting, fishing, and outdoor recreation. We can protect our land, water, and wildlife while keeping public lands open to responsible use—not locking them up. 

  • Oppose federal policies that restrict traditional access for Montanans
  • Support active management—logging, grazing, prescribed burns—to reduce  catastrophic wildfires
  • Prioritize local voices in land-management decisions that impact ranchers, outfitters, and sportsmen 

Join me in defending both access and stewardship of the lands we love.

Every legal Montana vote must be counted, and every illegal vote must be stopped. When elections are secure, results are trusted and our Republic stays strong. 

  • Require photo ID or secure verification for all in-person and absentee voting
  • Clean up voter rolls regularly and increase penalties for ballot harvesting and fraud
  • Expand transparent, bipartisan poll-watching and post-election audits 

Vote with me to strengthen Montana’s election laws so every Montanan can trust that their voice truly counts. 

Responsible Use of Montana’s God-Given Resources

Montana’s coal, oil, gas, timber, and minerals can power our economy, fund our schools, and create good jobs—without sacrificing clean water, clean air, or wildlife habitat. 

  • Streamline permits for responsible drilling, mining, and timber while enforcing tough, common-sense reclamation standards
  • Prioritize Montana workers, Montana companies, and local control over federal  overreach
  • Expand value-added industries so more processing and refining happens here at home 

I hope you will join me in championing responsible development that protects creation while helping Montana families thrive.

Safe Communities, Strong Law Enforcement

From Billings to small-town Montana, families deserve safe streets, strong sheriffs, and prosecutors who put victims first—not criminals. Public safety is the first duty of good  government. 

  • Back the blue with proper training, equipment, and mental health support for officers
  • Strengthen penalties for violent and repeat offenders, including drug traffickers and human traffickers
  • Partner with local communities and faith groups for prevention, rehab, and victim support 

I hope you will stand with me in supporting law enforcement and restoring law and order  across Montana. 

Fiscal Responsibility, Respect for Taxpayers

Defending the Second Amendment, Montana Style

Every dollar Helena spends comes from a Montana worker, rancher, or small business. We must demand zero-based budgeting, transparency, and strict limits on state spending  growth. 

  • Require performance audits and sunset reviews for agencies and programs that  spend your money
  • Tie state spending growth to population and inflation, not political wish lists
  • Build strong rainy-day reserves and pay down debt before creating new programs 

Join me in holding state government accountable to live within its means—just like Montana families do.

Firearms are part of Montana’s heritage and our security. Law-abiding citizens have the God-given right to defend themselves, their families, and their property. 

  • Oppose red-flag laws that violate due process and target responsible gun owners
  • Protect constitutional carry and strengthen preemption against local gun-control schemes
  • Expand firearm safety and hunter-education programs for youth and new gun owners

A vote for me will help to ensure the Second Amendment is never treated as a suggestion in Montana. 

Parental Rights in Schools and Healthcare

Parents—not bureaucrats, unions, or activists—have the final say in their children’s  education and medical decisions. Montana law and policy must reflect that truth. 

  • Require full curriculum transparency and easy online access for parents
  • Prohibit schools and providers from hiding health or counseling information from parents
  • Expand school choice options so parents can pick the best learning environment for their child 

Stand with me to restore parents as the primary decision-makers in the lives of their children.

Private property is a cornerstone of freedom. When government can take or control your land, it can control your life, your livelihood, and your legacy.

  • Strengthen protections against eminent domain abuse and unfair regulatory takings
  • Ensure land-use decisions respect agriculture, ranching, and family business traditions
  • Require fair, transparent processes and just compensation whenever government impacts property rights 

I will work to protect Montana property owners from government overreach. 

Digital Privacy in a High-Tech World

Protecting Private Property and Rural Heritage

Unleashing Montana’s Small Businesses

Montanans should not have to trade liberty for convenience. Your online data, location,  and communications deserve the same respect as your home and mailbox. 

  • Limit government access to personal digital data without a proper warrant
  • Require clear disclosure and consent when companies collect, sell, or share your  information
  • Support cyber-safety education for students, parents, and seniors across Montana

Join me in defending your privacy rights in the digital age.

Family farms, ranches, contractors, and mom-and-pop shops are the backbone of Montana’s economy. They need fewer obstacles and more opportunities to grow and create good jobs.

  • Cut unnecessary regulations and licensing hurdles that punish small employers
  • Support tax policies that reward work, hiring, and investment here in Montana
  • Expand workforce training partnerships between schools, trades, and local businesses
  • Promote high-quality jobs within our state 

Stand with me to make Montana the best place to start and grow a business.

Smaller, Smarter, More Accountable Government

Government exists to serve the people, not the other way around. Too many agencies,  boards, and programs grow bigger while delivering less for Montana taxpayers. 

  • Consolidate duplicative offices and cut wasteful programs that no longer serve their purpose
  • Expand transparency tools so citizens can easily see where every tax dollar goes
  • Require clear performance metrics for agencies—and consequences when they fail Montanans 

Join me in demanding lean, efficient, and accountable government that respects your liberty and your paycheck.
