Members of Congress’ lower chamber continue to weigh in on specific measures of the budget bill that could make passage through the U.S. House difficult.
Corey Ellis writes of Rep. Ryan Zinke, "He has been silent on the Trump administrations near constant abuse of executive power and disregard for the Constitution."
Several hundred people gathered in downtown Missoula on Monday night to engage in a town hall with the state's congressional delegation, where they hoped to discuss current events and concerns.
Members of Montana's congressional delegation praised President Donald Trump's national address on Tuesday night, though other voices weren't as supportive.
In a post on social media platform X, Zinke thanked supporters and congratulated fellow republicans Tim Sheehy and Troy Downing on their statewide victories.
The polling was conducted during the last two weeks of August - before Sheehy had a slew of negative news including a false claim of training in Glacier National Park, questionable business decisions, and making disparaging comments about the Crow people.
Loren Pinski writes, "On June 22, it was reported that Ryan Zinke, Matt Rosendale and 190 House Republicans voted to reinstate a confederate monument in Arlington National Cemetery."
The Republican party took a stance on various issues such as transgender women in sports, U.S. Sen. Jon Tester’s political track record, securing the border, and their opinion on how the current administration has handled past and present wars.
