Democratic primary voters should immediately see on broadcast television, cable television, streaming and digital that:

Matt Rains is a fourth generation Montana rancher, West Point graduate and Army captain who flew Black Hawk helicopters in Iraq. He helped create the first-of-its kind USDA meat processing co-operative to help Montana ranchers sell their beef without getting squeezed by out-of-state corporations, while lowering costs for Montanans. Now, Matt’s running for Congress to hold Trump and Republicans accountable for cutting health care and increasing costs, ending the tariffs driving up prices and building more housing so Montanans can afford to live here and raise a family.

Additionally, It is worth researching the following: 

  • Matt Rains is a 4th-generation Montana rancher. He knows Montana’s way of life is under attack and he’s fighting back.  

  • Matt first swore an oath to this country when he was 18-years-old and he’s been serving ever since. A West Point graduate and Army Captain, Matt flew Blackhawk helicopters in Iraq.

  • As a proud veteran, Matt is standing up against Republicans’ reckless Iran War that’s raising gas prices at home and putting more of our servicemembers in harm’s way. 

  • He will always put Montana First by reversing Trump’s devastating cuts to rural health care, lowering costs and protecting Montana’s way of life.

  • As Chief of Staff to the Montana Farmers Union Matt helped create a first of its kind, USDA-certified meat-processing  co-op so ranchers and producers could keep more of their hard-earned money. In Congress, he’ll fight  back against corporate monopolies like the big 4 meat packers, and their lackeys in Congress, that are making the cost-of-living crisis worse.
