Ryan Zinke Votes to Keep Raising Costs on Montanans

Zinke greenlights price-hikes on hardworking Americans

For the second time in 24 hours, Ryan Zinke voted to protect reckless, cost-raising tariffs, this time on Canada – Montana’s largest trading partner. Roughly 37% of Montana’s total exports go through the state’s northern neighbor. Tariffs are hitting Montana’s economy particularly hard.

MAKE NO MISTAKE: Zinke would rather choose fealty to his party bosses even if it comes at the expense of Montanans suffering from rising costs.

REMINDER: A new report reveals Trump’s tariffs are raising costs for the average American household by $1,000 per year, with costs expected to keep going up by hundreds of dollars.

DCCC Spokesperson Lindsay Reilly:
“Ryan Zinke couldn’t care less about Montanans struggling with rising costs or Montana farmers and ranchers suffering from reckless tariffs. Montana families, workers, and businesses deserve better than Zinke.”
