“Addressing our schools education budget is a non-negotiable priority for Montana’s future. Schools are far more than just classrooms; they serve as a vital safety net where children can grow into healthy, happy, and well-adjusted individuals.”
(Madison Evans campaign website) “For the past 40 years Montana has ranked in the top 5 for suicide rates in the nation. In 2023, Montana’s youth suicide rate was triple the national average. It's vital we address this crisis now.”
(Madison Evans campaign website) “Montana's public lands are not a line item, they are integral to our identity and way of life. Our public lands belong to all of us, not out-of-state developers or private interests looking to fence off what's ours. I will always stand against public lands going into private control. I will fight for the access and stewardship that will ensure the generations behind us can hunt, fish, camp, and hike on the same ground we did. Keeping public lands in public hands is non-negotiable.”
