Libertarian

Statement

Date: March 21, 2017

Running for office as a Libertarian is an uphill battle. But we live in the state that one hundred years ago made history and elected Janette Rankin, the nation's very first congresswoman, to Washington. Montanans have the individualism and the courage to make history again and send the first Libertarian to Washington.

Neither major political party is willing to set aside party loyalty to solve problems, choosing to fight each other and settle for band-aid approaches to complex problems or kick the can down the road for our children to deal with.

"Even though we often elect good people from Montana," Wicks says, "they come with party strings attached. We don't need another puppet from Montana. We have elected D's and R's over and over and nothing changes. We shouldn't expect change if we keep sending the same cookie cutter candidates to represent us. I guarantee you I won't fit anyone's mold of what a politician should be.

"I will be a statesman in a sea of politicians, a lighthouse in the fog of politics, and with your support, I will be the next Libertarian congressman from Montana."
