Susan Kohler writes, "Through his work as an advocate, he has increased the visibility of aging issues facing our aging population, helped curb the influence of big money, and helped gain new funds to help local services like Meals on Wheels for our older adults."

Zach Brown writes, "Montana can’t afford to lose any more of our senior long term care facilities, and I am grateful that Senator Tester is fighting for this important issue in the U.S. Senate."
