Montana Cowgirl is a popular blog that tracks the doings of Montana’s radical right. Without reservation it points out the inconsistencies in the actions of this group, the extremes to which they take issues and the hypocritical aspects of their thinking. With plenty of outlandish and even violent subthemes being played out on the national scene this source brings the chilling notions of ultras home. Disturbing news, indeed, even with a little salt.

Congressional candidate Kathleen Williams believes that our state – and our country – deserve qualified, honorable representation. First and foremost a thoughtful, dedicated member of the Montana community, Kathleen feels just as comfortable rolling up her sleeves for work in rural fields and streams as she does under the Capitol roof.
Her thirty-four-year natural resources career traverses the public, private, and non-profit sectors. The principles of responsible, science-based stewardship, the voices of individuals who work the land for a living, and the shared-used policies of state government inform her pragmatic, forward-thinking views on water rights, public access, and sustainability policy.
During her three terms as a Representative in Montana’s Legislature, Kathleen served as Vice Chair of the Agriculture and Taxation committees. She became well-known for fostering successful bipartisan relationships based on ethical behavior and mutual respect – principles increasingly absent from Washington, D.C. today.
Kathleen believes in the importance of independent, local farming initiatives. During her time in the Montana House, she distinguished herself as a legislative playmaker in agricultural circles. She served on the Governor’s Drought Committee and the Reserved Water Rights Compact Commission. Her graduate research on flows necessary to keep rivers healthy forming the basis of her expertise, she fought on the front lines to protect irrigator water rights, the water rights of the Salish-Kootenai tribes, and the protection of priority fisheries.
As a leader of the House Taxation Committee, Kathleen Williams familiarized herself with the urgent need for effective tax reform to help working-class families and worked to advance an Earned Income Tax Credit in 2013 – a measure which successfully passed in 2015. And for years, the Revenue Estimate – the state’s method for determining which programs to prioritize – was performed effectively and accurately with her contributions and leadership.
