Have you noticed how politicians have been using our congressional seat as a stepping stone? Here we have the largest congressional district in the nation, and the most populous one too, so it is a huge responsibility to represent all of Montana. But our representatives have been eager to move on to what they regard as more worthy careers – in the Senate or in the administration.
Rob Quist is a refreshing break from this pattern. He is a Montanan who wants to be a voice for us in Congress. He grew up in Cut Bank and he honors our Montana values. He values public land and strongly believes in access, not fences and locked gates.
Rob is not from New Jersey. He is not a billionaire. Obviously, since he could not pay his medical bills in the years before the Affordable Care Act. Rob isn’t shopping around for a political position that gives him status, or a route to higher office.
It’s about time that we had a congressman who wants to represent us in Washington. On or before May 25, vote for Rob Quist for Congress.
