by Ethel Schultz, Ulm

Listen up and get behind Sam Forstag to represent Montana- he is clearly the best with the grit to blaze the way forward for every Montanan:

My name is Ethel Schultz and after my husband passed away I sold my home in another state as I needed to be closer to family. I haven’t been able to find anything affordable to buy. I can see the younger generation struggling to start a plan for their future- working hard, paying the bills, household and doctor bills. Trying to raise a family and paying for child care- how can they make plans to buy a home that is priced out of reach? Let’s look ahead for the new generation and all work together to help them realize dreams they can achieve in the state we love- Montana. Hard work never hurt anybody so roll up your sleeves and let’s do this. My wish for everyone- may life be kind to them.
