Montana voters have chosen two new representatives, Sen.-elect Tim Sheehy and Rep.-elect Troy Downing, both Republicans, to serve in the 119th U.S. Congress. Sheehy, who defeated Democratic Sen. Jon Tester, is focused on getting the Trump administration operational quickly. He will serve on committees related to the military, veterans affairs, and transportation. Downing, wrapping up his term as state auditor, plans to tackle budget bills in the House and prioritize issues related to banking and technology.
Sheehy, a newcomer to politics, acknowledges the importance of implementing new ideas and disrupting traditional ways of operating. Despite being the least senior member for a brief period, he is committed to serving Montana and America during his time in the Senate. Downing, on the other hand, has high expectations for incoming auditor James Brown and aims to get to work quickly in the House. Both representatives plan to maintain connections to Montana while serving in Washington, D.C.
This election marks the first time since 1960 that Montana has sent two new members of Congress to Washington at the same time. Sheehy and Downing are prepared to represent their constituents and work towards achieving their goals in the upcoming Congress. With the support of President Trump, both representatives are optimistic about the potential for change and progress during their time in office.
