Mike Taylor would work hard on PSC

Editor,

Mike Taylor is my choice for the Public Service Commission. While there are other quality candidates in the primary, Mike is the best person to run a strong campaign this fall. I have known and worked with Mike for many years both personally, in business and in state government.

No one will work harder than Mike Taylor. He is extremely intelligent, articulate and committed to serving Montanans. Mike is a man of integrity.

While I was the Speaker of the Montana House, Mike sponsored several pieces of legislation that have helped Montana realize a budget surplus and lower unemployment. One bill cut business taxes in half, saving Montana's agriculture and small businesses thousands of dollars. Mike also had the foresight to vote against deregulation on final passage.

No one handed Mike anything. He will apply that same work ethic to the Public Service Commission. I know Mike will work hard to preserve all that is great about Montana while carefully planning for our future.
