I agree with Jon Tester on many things. Jon Tester is very big on thinking about an alternate resource for this country. Jon Tester also trys very hard to make more jobs for Montata. Jobs are how we are going to turn this country around again. []
 * __The congress person most like me__** is Jon Tester who is a democrat.

_ _ **__The 3 issues that are most important to me__** are 1-jobs, 2-war in iraq, 3-animal rights.
 * __5 intersting facts__** about my state are that Montana went into statehood in 1889, its nicknamed the Treasure State, it has the largest grizzly population in the United States, its quarter is a bison skull looking over a mountains watching many bison grazing in a meadow, and Montana is home to the largest fresh water spring.(Giant Springs)
 * __5 interesting facts that relate to the issues most important to me__** are Montana has the largest migratory elk herd in the nation, Every spring nearly 10,000 white pelicans with a wingspan of nine feet migrate from the Gulf of Mexico to Medicine Lake in northeastern Montana, The "Going to the Sun Road" in Glacier Park is considered one of the most scenic drives in America, a Anesthesiologist is the highest paying job in Montana, and just about a third of all the troops in Montana were deployed into war in 2010.

I think that jobs will be what turns this country around. More jobs will make a better economy. A better economy will make a stronger country. First we have to get out of things that we dont need to be in such as war. This will also lead to lower gas prices, lower prices on items in the stores, and lower taxes. Alternate energy resources will help our nation save on millions of dollars a month that we are spending on gas. We need to find an alternate energy source, not only will this save money but it will save our environment. The troops need to come home. We are in Iraq for stupid reasons. Many innocent Americans are fighting everyday for our country and dying. They will never get to see their families again. Can you imagine being a dad, mother, or even a sibling and having your family member die and not get to say goodbye? Not to mention this "war" is costing a ton of money for our government, therefore making our economy worse! Animals are a huge part of our country. They give us most of our food, but there has to be limits on how many animals get killed to support each and every human being. Animals have hearts, feelings, and moods just like humans. Animals also provide for medical uses and making of fabrics. Animals have also gone into space for us. They deserve moral rights! _ __** Link to the bill i am sponsering -**__

This is a link to my bill-http://mockcongress2011.wikispaces.com/SB36. This bill is to reduce pollution given off by ca rs. What we are doing is we are making people buy a new car by 2017. Each company has to make cars with 35 mpg a car. It is a requirement, not an option. People should support my bill because pollution leads to health effects such as lung cancer and heart disease; and the way people are putting holes into the O-Zone layer; we need to make some actions sooner than later.
