This suburban, red-state housewife will not vote for Gianforte

To the editor:

As a white, suburban, red-state housewife whose comfortable lifestyle has been turned upside down since Greg Gianforte went to Washington, D.C., I oppose his latest attempt to be governor.

I’m not threatened by hunters who rack their rifles in the back window of their trucks, but by gunmen who carry firearms into peaceful rallies and deprive me of my right to peacefully assemble and speak my views.

It's criminal to eliminate healthcare laws without replacing them with better laws.

Children imprisoned at the border, when God-fearing families are willing to care for them, is expensive and unconscionable.

Money to build a border wall is better spent to build bridges and infrastructure that enhances economic growth.
