Downing Statement on Zinke Retirement

Today, Congressman Troy Downing (MT-02) released a statement following Congressman Ryan Zinke's retirement.

"For over 30 years, Commander Zinke has served his country with integrity, responsibility, and honor," said Congressman Downing. "It has been the privilege of a lifetime to serve alongside Ryan while fighting for Montanans in Washington-from protecting our public lands to supporting our farmers and ranchers. Time and again, he has gone to bat for the Treasure State, always putting Montana first.

"As he and Lola begin their next chapter, Heather and I wish them nothing but the very best. Our state is stronger because of his leadership and service. Montanans will miss having such a steadfast warrior on their team. Thank you for your service, Commander."
