Vote for Ryan Zinke for U.S. House. Ryan is a Montana boy and a patriot through and through. Ryan grew up in Whitefish and graduated from Whitefish High in 1980. I graduated from Flathead High in 1979 and did not know Ryan at that time, but my mother did.

My mother taught at the Whitefish Junior High for 15 years (1969-1984). She told me that Ryan was one of her favorite students. When Ryan first ran for Montana House, my mother told me that in the 1970s one of the fun activities they taught at the Whitefish Junior High was a mock legislature. She told me Ryan was one of the stars of that mock legislature. Ryan participated with such passion that she wasn’t surprised that he ran and won the race for his first term in the U.S. House. Even at that young age in the 1970s, my mom told me that Ryan had a deep love for our country.

My mother was also proud of Ryan for his success as a Navy SEAL. She said she was not surprised that Ryan was so successful in his life because of his passion and ability to work hard for what he believed in and his love for our country. Prior to my mother passing away a few years ago, we ran into Ryan at the Kalispell Center Mall and Ryan gave her a big hug. They had a short chat about those good old days in the 1970s when she taught Ryan and there was such love for this great country.

Ryan loves this country and will make Montana proud in the U.S. House. Ryan will always protect and defend our constitution. Please join me in voting for Ryan Zinke for the U.S. House in the general election.

Ryan Zinke strikes FEAR into the DC swamp with the “Federal Employee Accountability and Reduction Act”

This week, Ryan Zinke announced his first legislation: the Federal Employee Accountability and Reduction Act, a ten point plan to confront the entrenched bureaucracy of the DC swamp.

Ryan Zinke knows firsthand how powerful the DC Swamp can be. As Interior Secretary, Ryan Zinke was able to relocate parts of BLM out of DC and back to the areas that they actually manage. He proposed a budget which would cut wasteful spending and eliminate 4,000 federal employees from the Department of the Interior. Washington DC needs accountability and Ryan Zinke has the plan to bring it to them.

The ten point plan is as follows:

1. Create a clear pathway to remove government employees for cause

2. Cap the number of years a person can work for the federal government (non-military, non-law enforcement)

3. Cap government salaries so no government employee, like Dr. Anthony Fauci, can make more than the President of the United States

4. Eliminate preferred hiring practices for non-veteran government employees and eliminate expedited agency-to-agency hiring which allows managers to fill jobs with their unqualified friends

5. Prevent political appointees from “burrowing in” to career government employee positions

6. Require the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to electronically post salaries and titles of all political appointees every quarter

7. Create a pathway to downsize the federal government through attrition, defunding, and repealing recent actions to expand the IRS and DOJ

8. Create an automatic trigger law stripping current and former federal government employees of their benefits if they are convicted of violent or federal crimes or any crimes they are able to commit because of access to victims or information from their employment

9. Require certain federal agencies to relocate out of the Washington, D.C. metro area and closer to the customers they serve

10. Require the General Services Administration (GSA) to sell unused office buildings in certain oversaturated urban centers like Washington, DC, Denver and San Francisco

“I also know for a fact that the federal government is too big and unelected bureaucrats are too powerful. As a whole Washington, DC, is concerned with one thing above all else, how to keep its pet projects and special interest funding going. No more. This legislation would force the government to downsize via attrition and would defund and repeal recent expansions of the IRS, DOJ and other agencies.” – Ryan Zinke

Ryan on the Road

In Bozeman Ryan Zinke was joined by candidate for Senate District 34 Shelley Vance at the Bozeman Stampede. They had the chance to talk with voters and experience the opening night of one of Montana’s best celebrations of cowboy culture.

In Butte, Ryan had the pleasure of speaking with Montana Women in Mining and the Montana Society of Mining Engineers to speak about balancing conservation and resource extraction and the massive role that American mining plays in making sure we have access to the critical minerals we rely on.

In Columbia Falls, Tom, Carol, Joel and JoAnn hosted a great neighborhood meet & greet. More and more Montanans are ready to take back the House and fire Nancy Pelosi!

Former Interior Secretary Ryan Zinke is looking to serve Montana in Congress once again, and his first piece of legislation is EXACTLY what is needed in this country. We have a federal bureaucracy that has run amok. They’ve run amok under Democrat presidents, and they’ve run amok under Republican presidents.

Earlier today, Zinke first broke the news on our “Montana Talks with Aaron Flint” statewide radio show that he is introducing the FEAR Act. According to Zinke’s campaign press release, “The 10-point Federal Employees Accountability and Reduction (FEAR) Act would put the fear of accountability in the hearts of bad actors and root out corrupt government employees, returning power to the people.”

Here’s what Zinke had to say on the radio Wednesday morning:

Ryan Zinke: The swamp oughta fear this because we need to get accountability back in to the swamp. I mean, you have Fauci, you had these guys that don’t work for anybody, and everyone should be accountable to somebody. Even the President of the United States is accountable to people. But when you have bureaucrats that are on their own agenda, they don’t bow to ‘We The People.’ They need to go, and we need to reduce our federal employee load. I mean, the first one on the chopping block is the 87,000 IRS troopers that are coming our way, and we need to eliminate that.

Zinke also talked about how the federal bureaucracy is “like tenured professors on steroids.” It’s too hard to fire the bad actors.

Zinke: What we’ve done over a period of time is we’ve created an elite class of bureaucrat that’s untouchable. And you look at the confidence the American people have with any branch, division, department of the United States government, and you ask a fundamental question- is there any branch, division, agency, department of the United States government that has the full faith and trust with people? And the answer is no. We have to return to accountability, transparency, and reduce the load of bureaucracy”.

On Liz Cheney’s big loss in the Wyoming GOP primary election:

Zinke: We ride with the brand, right. And there’s a lot of diversity of thought in the brand, and we’re not monolithic. But when your sole purpose is to shoot in, and you do more harm to the brand riding with it then you do not, you just need to be carved out of the herd. So I don’t hate Liz Cheney, but she’s not a Republican. She hasn’t been a Republican in a while and she’s not served Wyoming. Her sole focus was to take down President Trump., How does that benefit the great State of Wyoming? It doesn’t, and the voters of Wyoming made the right decision- get her out.
