If you’ve been around a TV anywhere in Montana lately, you’ve seen Conrad Burns’ latest twist of his relationship with Washington lobbyists.
Senator Burns says he’s setting the record straight on his relationship with disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff. But his ad is straight-up political spin.
We put together a response to Senator Burns that offers what all Montanans deserve ??? the truth.

Conrad Burns has lost touch with Montana. These days, he seems more likely to fight for powerful Washington interests than Montana working families concerned about jobs, health care, education, and high energy costs.
The culture of corruption and cronyism in Washington has to end. We need a Senator who’s willing to take on the powerful interests to fight and get the work done for Montanans and Americans, not K Street lobbyists who pay to play in the halls of Congress.
Conrad Burns has dropped more than $200,000 on media all over Montana to spin his relationship with Jack Abramoff. But you can help counter his attempts to distort the truth by forwarding this message to a friend. And help us continue to set the record straight by making a contribution today.
Thank you for all that you do.
