Hello, Montana.

My name is Kevin Hamm, and I am deeply proud of this State we call home. So proud, in fact, that I am running to represent Montana in Congress. I ask for your vote.

I am too blunt to be a politician. Like most Montanans, I did not build my name or bank account on inherited wealth. I got my hands dirty, built a small business, worked in our communities, and earned what little money I have. So, while I may not have deep pockets to buy billboards and lobbyists, I do have a lifetime of real-world work experience advocating for Montanans in every way I can.

Montanans know we are a stubbornly “purple” State, and we always have been. We split our political tickets across party lines more than most states. And, thanks to our hard-working, community-focused ways, we have often seemed nearly immune, or at least highly resilient, to the political divisiveness infecting so much public discussion.

It feels like there has been an effort to change this. In recent years, we have endured a storm of polarizing and fear-mongering political messages, from every direction.

Some of this fear has taken root. But, I still believe that Montanans remain steadfast in valuing our laborers, in maintaining our work ethic, in stewarding our land, and in defending our personal freedoms with mutual respect. I believe these values are more important than any political party or lobbyist-designed talking point.

This is why I believe I am the right candidate for Montana, right now. Win or lose, I will never stop fighting for your best interests, because they are mine, too. Montana needs someone representing us in Congress who has skin in the game, and something to lose, just like you.

Together, we can make this happen.
