Issue Position

Montana's economy was built on the strength of our unions and we must make certain that their history is not forgotten. Our economy has a growing service and tourism industry, but we are facing a critical workforce shortage in jobs that require specialized training. Our schools and our state must increase our commitment to ensuring that young Montanans have the skills necessary to succeed and build a life in their home state. This means recognizing and respecting the vital importance of every member of our work force and guaranteeing them "equality of opportunity" to earn a living wage and a safe work environment.
