Editor,

When I read of Tester’s latest expenditure of my tax dollars it is just too much. Now he has a bill for veterans exposed to burn pits. You’ve got to be kidding me. There is no end to this blowhard’s PR stunts. There isn’t one rock, however small, that this guy won’t turn over to find a reason to spend our money. He makes drunken sailors look like teetotalers.

Enough is enough. The big government Senator needs to know he represents Montana, the one that voted Republican this year. His support of out-of-control spending is embarrassing. Nearly every single week there is a newspaper headline touting how big Jon just got this outfit or that millions of dollars. Well, Jon, they’re our dollars not yours and we’re sick of it.

With a deficit of a mere $30 million it’s time to put that chained wallet of yours back in your pocket. It’s time to quit spending and start fixing the problems you helped create by supporting the people destroying our country. I’d love to see a headline once, just once, where you did something other than ‘award’ my money to someone.

We all know every year you’ve been in there your net worth has climbed until it’s now up four times what it was when you started. It’s time to represent the little people you so often claim to represent and never do. By the way, I’m a Marine veteran, and despite all your rhetoric the VA is the same as it was 10 years ago.

I’m reminded of what Alfred E. Newman said many years ago: “Just because everything is different doesn’t mean anything has changed.”

It’s time to tighten your belt, big guy.
