LETTER: Taylor Rose has youthful passion

I am very happy and proud to be backing Taylor Rose to become our representative for Columbia Falls in HD 3.

Taylor is a smart and well-rounded young man, and I believe he has the knowledge and skills to represent our community in Helena. Taylor knows that getting our working families and loggers back to work is essential for revitalizing the economy in Columbia Falls.

I am also very excited that he has taken the bold stand to oppose the settlement of refugees into Montana. Our state cannot bear the financial costs of taking care of these people when we cannot properly take care of our veterans. It saddens me that his Democrat opponent Zac Perry signed onto a letter with Democrat Sen. Tom Facey declaring their support for refugee settlement in Montana.

I know that Taylor, with his knowledge and energetic youthful enthusiasm will represent us well in Helena. — Jerry Lubbers, Columbia Falls
