As a young high school American government teacher, I compared our system to an automobile that was useful if it could start, speed up, slow down and stop. When the people thought government needed to be more active, they elected liberal Democrats to press down on the accelerator. When people thought government’s role was getting too large and expensive, they elected Republicans to apply the brakes and slow things down. Our national debt is now $20 trillion and rising. That amounts to about $155,000 in tax liability for the average family of f...
Alcohol affects drivers in a way that changes their judgement, depth perception, and the vital motor skills required to drive safely. An impaired driver may think they are behaving normally, when in reality they are not, which can lead to serious and deadly consequences. A high school student does not have much driving experience, and their brain is still developing, particularly the part that affects their ability to make good decisions. A still developing brain mixed with the negative effects of alcohol make it very difficult for a teen to...
Note: During proceedings of the U.S. Congress on Dec. 21, Montana Senator Steve Daines recognized Glasgow and those who participated in this year’s Block of Bucks to Congress and President Trump as “Montanan of the Week.” The statement he made is part of the Congressional Record, which is a document that reflects the official proceedings of Congress. The following is the statement submitted to the Congressional Record: MONTANAN OF THE WEEK Mr. President, this week, I have the distinct honor of recognizing the community of Glasgow for leadi...
Santa came early for hardworking Montanans. Republicans have kept their promise to the American people and delivered tax reform that will let you keep more of what you earn. In just a couple of months, you’ll see more of your hard-earned money in your paychecks, families will have much needed relief, and small businesses can grow, invest, and create more Montana jobs. This was long overdue – actually 31 years overdue. The last time Washington reformed the tax code, Ronald Reagan was in the White House, and I had a full head of hair. Much has...
I wont say that 2017 was the worse year on record. There was no bubonic plague, no World War III, and no Holocaust, so that should stand for something. This in spite of threats of isolationism, Twitter battles that could launch nuclear weapons, and petty fights over non-issues that have shaken the global order and alienated our closest friends. I will say then that 2017 was not a good year for much more than the stock market, corporations and Bitcoin. So what will the country face in 2018? What will we take on full charge, and try our hardest...
