In recent weeks, Sen. Jon Tester’s campaign has devolved into ad hominem attacks on Tim Sheehy, most of which have no relevance to the issues that are important to Montanans.

The latest of these unwarranted attacks came as a full-page ad in my local paper where the headline screamed “Sheehy’s plan closes Pioneer Medical Center.” I call horsepucky on that one! 

That ad is a near carbon copy to an attack ad directed at me in 2018. They claimed “John Esp’s (plan) could close this hospital.” Same hospital, six years apart, same disingenuous rhetoric.
