Burns, Rehberg, Hill And Marlenee Endorse Gianforte

Former U.S. Senator Conrad Burns, along with former U.S. Reps. Denny Rehberg, Rick Hill, and Ron Marlenee announced today their endorsements of Greg Gianforte.

All four cited Gianforte’s experience as a businessman and job creator as the reason for their endorsements.

BURNS:

On technology and new technologies, Greg was leading way out in front of me when I was in the Senate. He understands what it will take to restore the economic health of our state.

REHBERG:

If we wish to see our economy thrive, and desire to have our kids be able to stay in the state, then we need Greg Gianforte as the next governor of Montana. Hard working Montanans need a leader who will fight for them every day in Helena.

HILL:

I think we are lucky to have a person with the experience, background and dedication seeking the office of governor.  Our economy has so much potential for more, better paying jobs. What's missing is the right leadership. Greg understands what it takes to build a successful business. He understands our potential if we get our public policy right. For too long we have exported our most valuable resource - our children.  It's time to bring them home. I am supporting Greg because I know he has a heart for Montana. He has a vision for our state.  He has a passion to restore opportunity.

MARLENEE:

Politics has evolved into smear campaigns; I know you can bring decency back into the process.  Your efforts to date have resulted in providing good paying jobs and a promise of a brighter future for Montana.

Gianforte is the founder of RightNow Technologies in Bozeman, which grew to 1,100 employees at an average wage of nearly $90,000 a year.
