Who is behind the anti-trapping Initiative, I-177? This threat to Montana’s hunting and trapping heritage is being driven by out-of-state animal rights activist groups such as PETA, ASPCA, Humane Society, etc.
Out-of-state environmental organizations like Sierra Club, Defenders of Wildlife, etc. are also pushing for passage of I-177. What is alarming is that these same groups are also funneling political action cash (PAC money) into Steve Bullock’s re-election campaign. Unfortunately, Montana’s elected Democratic office holders throughout the state are taking (PAC money) from groups who would saddle Montana Sportsmen with I-177. Makes one wonder what is going on behind the scenes. Washington DC isn’t the only place to look for political cronyism? Green Decoy groups and animal rights activists with political action cash are looking for favors from the politicians they finance. Is twelve years of a Democrat administration in Helena making the itch for political insiders to scratch each others’ backs better or worse? Will four years of Hillary in DC and four more of Bullock in Helena bring an end to political corruption?
We need new leadership to have any hope for change.
We need a governor who will turn away PAC money coming from those pushing I-177.
Greg Gianforte is the best choice for Montana governor.
Followed by Republican or Libertarian candidates up and down your ballot.
We may not get the swamp drained in Washington DC, but we sure can clean up the mess in Helena.
Vote no on Initiative I-177.
