Endorsements!

Some of the Endorsements are in for the 2014 Primary Races and I am honored to have received not only an A Rating but the Endorsement of the NRA. This is an important issue to us in Montana as we are seeing the Second Amendment being rewritten by public opinion, by judicial overreach, and by legislative actions. I have also been endorsed over my opponent by Montana Shooting Sports Association and the Montana Conservative Alliance.

“We believe Ronalee Skees is a person Montanans can count on to protect their family incomes, their personal liberties, and the traditional moral values upon which all free societies are based. Ronalee is a person whose faith in freedom can bring great change and innovation to an out-of-control government and a bloated state bureaucracy.  Ronalee is a statesman, not a politician, who stands with integrity upon the principles of the Constitution.

Therefore, Montana Conservative Alliance urges the voters in House District 7 to give Ronalee Skees their full and enthusiastic support.  Ronalee is a true and principled conservative.  During these perilous times, we desperately need her courage and leadership in Helena.”

 
We know how I will vote in Helena, I humbly ask for your support and your vote on June 3^rd.

For Life, For Freedom, For Montana!

The right choice for Montana!

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.

I'm listening,

Rift in the Republican Party

I find it interesting that the news worth printing beginning this political season is the media biased rift in the Republican camp. There is a fundamental difference in those that call themselves ‘Responsible-Republicans’ the rest of the party. We are not hearing what those ideals are, just the blood sport of the slugfest. Essential to this argument of the ‘divide’ is the principles of the party platform. I am not advocating being a party line person with no regard for the collective needs of a community, just the basic foundation of the platform; limiting government to its constitutional role, free market solutions for economic growth, sanctity of human life, personal responsibility and the consequences that accompany those responsibilities. There are a few others, but for the limited space of this letter I only will mention those. The aforementioned hyphenated members of the party are working against the principle of limited government. The reason that this is even a part of the platform is because the Republican ideals strongly believe that the constitution set a standard for the level of government control in our individual lives. The more we give to laws that invade our very fabric of life, the less control we have over it. Free market principles have morphed into a good ole boy system of ‘protecting mine at the cost of theirs’ by creating law and alliances that protects their investments while the rest of us have to subsidize their privilege. All life has value and we are to honor and protect the older citizens among us, as well as those that are yet to be born. I support primary elections to listen to the concerns of the people and hear the different candidate’s approach with solutions. I am not at all interested in the good ole boys fighting a death match of mudslinging. So I ask the question of you, if examining the principles of the divide, who are truly the responsible ones?
