The silence that threatens our democracy

The silence of Montana’s Congressional Delegation is deafening. Does anyone truly believe the steps taken by President Trump serve American interests? The trajectory of our government suggests otherwise—the damage risks becoming irreparable, as with Humpty Dumpty.

Should we stand by and allow this dismantling of our nation’s core values? Economic policies like crippling tariffs, disassembly of Social Security, and decimation of low-income programs threaten the financial stability of millions.

Abuse of power runs rampant, from the misuse of emergency laws to vindictive actions against political opponents, improprieties in the Oval Office, and granting unfettered access to sensitive data.
