Editor,

Thunder boomed as a deluge of rain fell outside, setting the stage for a powerful presentation by Ryan Busse at a gathering of Montanans. Running for governor, he painted a positive picture of the future with articulate skill, humor and warmth.

If elected, this future includes Ryan’s honoring Montana’s constitutional right to a “clean and healthful environment,” the right to privacy and freedom of choice, and our right as citizens to vote freely without harassment or confusion.

Upset about property taxes? Busse would work to undo the disastrous rise placed on us by the Gianforte administration. Taxes on the governor’s mansion went down while all of his neighbors’ taxes rose exponentially. Fair? The tax rebate in August is an obvious vote-getting ploy. Beware.

Ryan Busse is a responsible gun owner, an avid and ethical hunter (unlike Gianforte), hiker and angler. He opposes any effort to limit access to our public lands; while Gianforte sued Montanans to evict them from the banks of the East Gallatin River. Fair?

Public schools need support. As a teacher, I know this; Ryan knows it too. He would work to increase teacher pay, benefits, and safe working conditions. He opposes using taxpayer money to fund private and religious charter schools; Gianforte supports this. Fair?

A former business executive, Busse supports small business and organized labor, better housing conditions and reliable infrastructure. Read his book, “Gunfight,” to get a clear picture of his ethical positions.

We need a governor with strong moral backbone who cares more about hard-working middle class families than elitist, out-of-state millionaires/billionaires. Let’s “get our Montana back.” Vote for Busse.
