2024 MT Senate race: on Energy & Oil


Tim Sheehy: Time to make America energy independent and dominant again

It's time to make America energy independent and dominant once again. We can power America's resurgence with the greatest form of energy known to man, our God given natural resources. We are blessed here with abundant coal, minerals, timber and grasslands--let's make sure Montana producers come first. We should be able to responsibly develop those resources here at home to create more high-paying jobs, lower energy costs, and support our communities, all while protecting the environment.
