NEW VIDEO: After Being Labeled a Public Health Threat, Greg Gianforte Lies About Taking Proper COVID-19 Precautions

Helena, MT – Earlier this week, more than 100 health care professionals wrote an open letter to Greg Gianforte, calling his refusal to wear a mask in public “a threat to the health and safety of our communities.” They continued, saying, “Mr. Gianforte – this isn’t a joke – it is nothing less than a matter of life or death.”

Gianforte’s campaign responded the only way they know how – lying. In a statement, the campaign said, “Greg takes necessary precautions, including social distancing and wearing a mask.”

Today, the Montana Democratic Party is exposing Gianforte’s lame excuse for jeopardizing Montanans’ public health and safety as just another Gianforte lie.

WATCH — “Threat”

“Time and time again, Greg Gianforte has proven that he’s unwilling to take COVID-19 seriously, and is unfit to lead Montana through a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic,” said MDP Deputy Communications Director Matt Fidel. “Montanans want their next governor to embrace and follow the advice of public health experts, not openly defy it.”
