Troy reader supports Flint for Congress

On Nov. 3, Montanans in the First District face a clear choice and Aaron Flint is the right man for the job.

Flint stands with law enforcement, from our local sheriff’s deputies to the U.S. Border Patrol. In Congress, he’ll fight to secure our borders and stop the flow of fentanyl into our state. 

Sam Forstag has taken the opposite approach, backing sanctuary policies and pushing to defund the police. That’s the wrong direction for Montana.

Women and girls deserve a fair shot on the field, and Flint will protect it by keeping biological males out of women’s sports. Forstag would let them compete, putting female athletes’ safety and opportunities at risk. Forstag also supports gender transition surgery for minors, a practice Flint will fight to end once and for all.

It’s no surprise Forstag has won endorsements from Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Bernie Sanders, leaders of the socialist left. Those aren’t Montana values.

Flint supports our military and will cut taxes for middle-class Montanans working hard to make ends meet. Forstag has argued for higher property taxes on those same families.

You may have heard claims that Flint backs AI data centers, handouts to billionaires, or healthcare cuts. They’re false and they’ve been debunked.

Aaron Flint will put Montanans first and keep advancing President Trump’s America First agenda. Vote Flint on Nov. 3.
