Helena, MT – Today, the Montana Democratic Party launched a new website, TransplantTim.com, highlighting how Mitch McConnell recruit Tim Sheehy’s recent arrival to Montana, multimillion dollar luxury properties across the state, and ties to lobbyists and DC insiders are out of touch with Montana.

The Montana Democratic Party will be running Google search ads directing people to the website. In addition, TimSheehyForSenate.org will redirect to TransplantTim.com. 
 

“Ultra-wealthy out-of-staters like Tim Sheehy are spending millions to make Montana more like Jackson Hole and less like Big Sandy,” said Monica Robinson, senior communications advisor for the Montana Democratic Party. “Whether it’s his private peninsula on Flathead Lake or his hobnobbing with DC lobbyists to be Mitch McConnell’s yes-man, it’s clear that Tim Sheehy won’t bring Montana values to the U.S. Senate.”

Transplant Tim Sheehy Wants to Buy Montana

Montana is about hard work and open spaces. Our Montana way of life is what makes us the Last Best Place, but it's all being threatened by ultra-wealthy out-of-staters like Tim Sheehy and his special interest friends who want to make Montana their playground while hardworking Montanans pay the price.

In Sheehy's Montana, Outsiders Call the Shots

Sheehy was personally recruited to run by Mitch McConnell in an effort "to compete in Montana" and McConnell's NRSC "has been heavily recruiting"Sheehy.

...And Out-Of-State Special Interests Are The Priority

Days before launching his campaign, Sheehy was caught hobnobbing with special interest lobbyists in Washington, DC. 

In Sheehy's Montana, the Wealthy Buy Up Luxury Properties – and Drive Up Costs for Hardworking Montanans

Sheehy owns a “totally private,” seven-acre peninsula on Flathead Lake that has three separate houses, 2,000 feet of waterfront, a five-car garage, sauna, and tennis court.

Sheehy also owns a multi-million dollar mansion in Big Sky that was listed as a vacation rental for $1,400 per night. "Wealthy newcomers" like Sheehy have driven up the cost of living for lifelong Montanans.

Now Sheehy's Trying to Buy Montana...Literally

Sheehy is a multi-millionaire who was recruited by McConnell because he has "the resources to self-finance" his campaign to try to buy himself and his friends in Washington DC a Senate seat in Montana.
