I walked away from each conversation with something I can take with me as I serve Montana. I'll continue crisscrossing the state and meeting with Montanans where they live, work, and raise their families. \nLogging thousands of miles, Gianforte conducted town halls and sat down with Montanans, including local leaders, state and local law enforcement officials, border patrol agents, health care professionals, veterans, students, nonprofit leaders and volunteers, farmers, ranchers, small business owners, and tribal members, among others.\nThe meetings and events covered a wide range of issues, including jobs, the economy, health care, public lands, border security, veterans, infrastructure, and tribal matters.\n\nEvents by county\nActivities listed below are not a complete list of Gianforte's events, but rather represent one event per county.
