The Treasure State Still Has Treasure — It’s Time to Use It
Montana is called the Treasure State for a reason. God gave this state timber, minerals, oil, gas, good land, and hardworking people. And, for generations, Montanans used those resources to build towns, support schools, raise families, and create good lives. But things have changed. Montana still has timber, coal, oil, gas, gold, silver, copper, palladium,…

Fourth-Generation Montanan and Small Business Owner Earns Top Rating in HD 69 Republican Primary SHERIDAN, MT — Trevor Walter, Republican candidate for Montana House District 69, has been endorsed by the Montana Conservative Alliance with an A+ rating — the organization’s highest designation. “I’m honored to receive this recognition from the Montana Conservative Alliance,” said…
Read MoreReal Progress Starts with the Right Team in Helena
Why District 69 needs a dependable conservative vote in Helena People ask me all the time, “What are you going to do for our county when you get to Helena?” That’s a fair question. But the honest answer is this: no one legislator goes to Helena and fixes big problems alone. A legislator can make…
Read MoreOpposition to Geoengineering and Weather Modification
For the record: I am 100% opposed to geoengineering and weather modification of any kind — including cloud seeding. No exceptions. SB 473, introduced in Montana’s 2025 legislative session, was a step in the right direction, but it failed because people tried to draw a distinction between “cloud seeding” and “geoengineering.” That’s a false line.…
Read MoreProtect the Taxpayer, Limit the Government
It’s time we reclaim our rightful role as stewards of the Constitution—and demand a limited government that serves the people, not itself. One of the most basic principles of a free society is this: Government Does Not Own The People—It Serves Them. That principle breaks down the moment government treats taxpayer dollars as an unlimited…
Read MoreJesus Didn’t Avoid Politics — He Redefined Leadership
For generations, we’ve been told that politics and religion shouldn’t mix. But when you read the Gospels, that claim falls apart. Jesus spoke often about leadership, justice, authority, and accountability. His ministry wasn’t detached from civic life—it confronted corruption, challenged entrenched power, and taught what righteous governance looks like. Jesus regularly engaged the Sadducees, the…
Read MoreMontana’s Prosperity Depends on Industry, Not Vacation Homes
Recently, the Whitehall Ledger published an article by Rep. Llew Jones arguing that Montana’s economy has “shifted” from natural resource industries to tourism, service work, and high-end real estate — and that our tax system and future economic vision should shift along with it. In other words, we should accept this new direction and build…
Read MoreA Simpler, More Affordable Approach to Healthcare
For decades, Americans have been told there are only two choices for healthcare. You can pay rising premiums for traditional insurance, or you can rely on government programs that grow bigger and more expensive every year. But there’s actually a third option—one that’s already helping families save thousands of dollars: medical sharing plans. Both faith-based…
Read MoreHB 680 — A Bad Deal for Montana’s Historic Treasures
While House District 69 Representative Ken Walsh sponsored HB 680, it passed with overwhelming support from the Legislature, making it a mistake shared by many that never should have happened. HB 680 changes how Montana treats two of its most important historic places: Virginia City and Nevada City. These towns are not just state-owned property.…
Read MoreVetting Candidates Doesn’t Divide Republicans — Dishonesty Does
I’m new to state politics — and I’ll be honest, from the outside it looks like a game. But once you’re inside it, you realize quickly it’s no joke. Too many people treat lawmaking like a sport, where scoring points matters more than doing what’s right. But this isn’t a game — it’s people’s families,…
