Skees for HD5 - a woman of action

Ronalee Skees’ lifestyle is one of dedication to serving others as she adheres to a strong moral compass. She doesn’t just talk pro-life talk; she lives it. She has been a volunteer in crisis pregnancy ministry for 26 years, including in foreign countries, as guest speaker for fundraising, and Hope Pregnancy resource director in the Flathead Valley.

Crisis pregnancy work focuses equally on saving mother and child, loving and ministering to that mother regardless what choice she ultimately makes. Ronalee’s work is listening to and responding to people’s needs. She is a problem solver. She has been a life-skills coach to inner city teens and young adults and has taught GED preparation for girls coming out of prostitution. Her ultimate goal: to teach these troubled girls and women that they have tremendous value, value that no one can diminish or remove. That is the basis for pro-life: the intrinsic value of each precious individual.

Ronalee has been going to Helena during the legislative sessions since 2009 for pro-life and other bills. A courageous woman of action and principle, with a heart of compassion, she also has a sharp intellect and a great understanding of the depth and reasons for our national and state crises. She is precisely the type of person we need in Helena. I urge you to vote for Ronalee Skees in House District 5.
