Montanans won’t forget that Sheehy “embrace[d] a toxic position on public lands”
Helena, MT – Montana newcomer Tim Sheehy came under fire when he called for transferring public lands to states and counties. Now, he appears to be trying to hide his real position – but Montanans won’t forget.
In a Fox News interview Sunday night, Sheehy said that “access to public lands is incredibly important to Montanans.” However, Sheehy’s plan would make it easier to sell off Montana’s public lands to out-of-state multimillionaires like him.
Montanans have called Sheehy out for his plan to transfer public lands:
Daily Inter Lake: Keep public lands in public hands
Missoula Current: Viewpoint: With out-of-state candidate, public lands again on ballot
Flathead Beacon: Sheehy’s Land Transfer Idea is Wildly Unpopular
Montana Standard: Keep public lands accessible for all
Bozeman Daily Chronicle: Letter to the editor: Sheehy forgets what public land means
