Beginning in September, voters will learn about Aaron Flint’s humble beginnings, having been raised by a single mother, worked hard to pay for school and then join the military. He supports public lands and allowing Montanans the opportunity to hike, hunt and fish.

While spending two decades in the military and seeing combat in the middle east, Aaron was taught how to be a leader. A skill he will bring with him to Congress as a Representative.

In the Missoula and Bozeman markets, voters need to learn that Sam Forstag is a radical leftist who has been a lobbyist for far-left wing organizations and has advocated for legislation to make Montana a sanctuary state and let men compete in women’s sports. In Congress he would vote to eliminate the child tax credit for middle-class workers and would have voted to tax overtime pay, jacking up taxes by thousands of dollars on hard working Montanans trying to provide for their families.

He is too progressive for Montana and has support from both Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The contrast between Aaron and Sam is clear.
