Why am I your candidate for House District 7?

I have had a lot of people ask me “why are you running?” I honestly see this as an extension of all the work I have put in to serving this community already. I am not new to Helena, I have been there to stand in support of great bills that protect families and strengthen communities as well as fight legislation that weaken or diminish our rights. I have the leadership experience for Helena as well as the relationships to get the job done. 

I believe that solutions are possible and that we need to break the status quo. I have been listening and asking the questions to learn what really matters. I have experienced that parents know how to parent, teachers love to teach, and a clean and productive environment will produce jobs as well as protect the amazing outdoor activities that we all enjoy.

I am no stranger to adversity, like many of you, and have learned how to create solutions where there looks like none can be found. I also know that my principles are the one thing that I can always fall back on in decision making. I am unwavering on those principles the Constitution has clearly laid as a foundation for leadership.

Too many people think that they have all of the answers and want to tell Montanans how to live their lives, many of these talkers gravitate toward leadership in government to control. I want to serve through leadership to create individual opportunity.

I am Ronalee Skees for House District 7 and I would be honored to count on your support.

Let's help the Flathead restore the Flathead!

Here we go into the launch of the 2014 campaign season. Spring has started to show in Kalispell and I am out knocking on doors.

It is interesting to meet so many people and hear all the things that are important to them. I have to say, the main thing that people in Kalispell keep talking about is the economy. There is an uneasy feeling about the future and the ability to provide even the most basic of needs. I hear moms worried that dads are going to have to go to another state to work. The phrase that has mostly come up is, "I did not plan to be a married single mom".

I believe that Montana can do better, we need to open up opportunity where businesses want to do business in Montana. Where higher paying jobs and families staying in our community is the norm. We need to work with business not make is harder for businesses to thrive.

A job is more than a paycheck! I've seen the light in the eyes of someone moving from homelessness to self-sufficiency. That light only comes with hard work and hand-up, not hand-outs.
