Sen. Tester visits Boulder on July 4

“You’re a good fighter; we need you.” With that greeting, a woman at the Boulder Fourth of July Celebration in the Park moved on from shaking the hand of U.S. Senator Jon Tester.

Tester, who is up for re-election this fall, stopped in Boulder between appearing in the Butte parade and visiting the East Helena celebration.

Following a presentation by local American Legion member Damon Songer (see speech in this issue), Tester told the crowd the love of country contained in the words of Sen. Jon McCain quoted by Songer is exactly what the Fourth of July is all about.
