Jon Tester supports giving law enforcement the resources they need to reduce crime and supports tough penalties for people who manufacture or sell drugs. Meth, in particular, is a critical issue facing Montana families.
Tester voted for legislation that increases funding for drug task forces and establishes some of the toughest laws in the country to shut down meth labs. Sen. Burns, on the other hand, recently voted for massive cuts to Montana’s drug task force.
