Helena, MT– In response to Republican Senators Steve Daines and Tim Sheehy voting for the GOP’s devastating budget, Justin Ailport, Interim Executive Director of the Montana Democratic Party, released the following statement:
“Daines and Sheehy once again failed to stand up for working Montanans and their families by voting in favor of Trump’s dumpster fire, billionaire-first budget. Daines and Sheehy know well that this budget will strip away tens of thousands of Montanans of their health insurance and food assistance. Hospitals and clinics in Montana will be forced to cut back service or even close their doors, disproportionately impacting rural Montana and indigenous communities. Not to mention, this bill will kill good-paying jobs and explode the national deficit all in the name of providing tax breaks for billionaires.
Daines and Sheehy have proven once again they don’t give a damn about Montanans, but Democrats in Montana will not stop fighting and are mobilizing to hold Republicans accountable everywhere. The stakes have never been higher.”
