Incoming GOP senator reveals how he will ‘strap rocket-boosters’ to Trump’s agenda in new Congress
Fresh off his victory over longtime Montana Democrat Sen. Jon Tester, Republican Sen.-elect Tim Sheehy is gearing up to make a difference in the next Congress. Sheehy, who defeated Tester by seven points in a crucial race that helped Republicans take control of the Senate, is outlining his priorities and detailing what his party’s agenda will look like in the Senate.
In an exclusive interview with Fox News Digital, Sheehy expressed his commitment to making Montana affordable again and strengthening America. He emphasized the importance of securing the border, ensuring safe streets, keeping gas prices low, supporting law enforcement, and upholding traditional values. Sheehy highlighted the need to rein in the federal bureaucracy, eliminate wasteful spending, restore common sense, and promote transparency and accountability in government.
Sheehy pledged to support President-elect Donald Trump’s agenda by \”strapping rocket-boosters\” to it and working to get the country back on track. He promised to always fight for the people of Montana, prioritize America’s interests, and do what is right for the state and the nation.
One of Sheehy’s immediate priorities is taking action at the southern border to address the ongoing crisis. He echoed President Trump’s commitment to sealing the border and ending the influx of drugs and crime that has plagued communities in recent years.
Economic issues, particularly inflation and rising costs, will be a key focus for Sheehy in the Senate. He plans to work on reducing prices for families and increasing wages for hardworking Americans in industries such as farming, mining, logging, trucking, and construction. Sheehy emphasized the importance of reviving the resource economy and opposing job-killing policies like the Green New Deal.
Protecting public lands, preventing wildfires, and rebuilding the military are also top priorities for Sheehy. As a combat veteran, he understands the need to prioritize combat readiness over social initiatives in the military. Sheehy is committed to ensuring that the military is prepared to win wars and keep the country safe.
With Republicans holding a majority in the Senate and narrow control of the House of Representatives, Sheehy is poised to work with his colleagues to advance conservative policies and support President Trump’s legislative agenda. Trump’s recent call to Republican senators underscored the mandate and opportunity they have to lower prices, secure the border, and put America back on the right track.
As Sheehy prepares to take office in January, he is focused on delivering results for the people of Montana and the country as a whole. His dedication to conservative principles, economic prosperity, national security, and responsible governance will guide his work in the Senate. Montanans can expect Sheehy to be a strong voice for their interests and a champion for America First policies.
