Have you considered voting your ballot from the bottom up? Which have you encountered in the last month, an electricity or gas bill or had a confrontation with local police? Viewing national media would make you think it was most likely the latter.
The Montana Public Service Commission’s good or bad decisions affect your utility bill every month. Who is running? Monica Tranel and Jennifer Fielder.
Jennifer Fielder has spent her political career encouraging the public that our public lands should be managed by the state or worse, sold to private interests. She has no PSC experience.
Monica Tranel is a Montana native, Olympian Gold medal winner, PSC staff attorney for four years, served on Consumer Council for two years, and represented clients before the PSC for the past 20 years.
Start at the bottom building a solid foundation, vote for the experience of Monica Tranel, then take a hike on your public lands.
