00:03Reunited and it feels so good.
00:09It's so good to see you again, Missoula.
00:16Were any, was anyone here at our Fight the Oligarchy rally last year?
00:25Do we have any newcomers here as well?
00:30We love to see it.
00:31We love to see it, hear it.
00:34Welcome, and we're so, so excited.
00:37And thank you all for welcoming back to your beautiful, beautiful state.
00:44You know, I have to say the first time that I landed in Missoula last year,
00:56it truly, as the plane was descending through the clouds and we started to see that first break
01:02and you see the sky and you see the line, you know, the mountains for the first time
01:06and the beautiful landscape of this state.
01:09It genuinely took my breath away.
01:13It took my breath away.
01:15And immediately when that happened and I looked out that window,
01:21I understood what people meant when they talked about Montana and other places.
01:33It's something that you just can't possibly understand until you have that experience and you're here
01:41and it is sacred and it is beautiful.
01:45And so much of what you all have done here and your history here and the culture here
01:53can be explained by that five-second break below the clouds.
02:01And the more I've spent here, the more I've realized that that landscape, as gorgeous as it is,
02:08isn't even the half of it.
02:10Because what makes Montana so special is the people here who refuse to let it go.
02:26Missoula, we were last here together a year ago.
02:317,500 people showed up in little old Missoula to fight the oligarchy.
02:40And what was so important and so special in that time
02:45was that we were showing that hope can exist anywhere
02:50and that there isn't a single pocket in this country that should be written off
02:56when it comes to the people who are waking up and realizing
03:00that we in this moment are in the fight for our lives.
03:06We are.
03:09And it's why I'm here and it's why we're all coming here together today.
03:13Today, I'm very aware of the fact that I'm coming here as a New Yorker.
03:21And I know, understandably, that there's a lot of suspicion around the city girl.
03:31But I also think it's important for us to note that a lot of that is intended to divide us.
03:39Because what the folks and the big money don't want us to realize
03:46is that we're actually, and our struggles are far more common than our landscapes are different.
03:58You know, I was talking to Sam earlier today.
04:03And so many of us share similar issues and similar priorities.
04:08We want wages to be higher.
04:11We want our water to be clean.
04:12We don't want, you know, our water to be poisoned.
04:17And we want to be able to work a job, one job, and have it afford a living
04:24and be able to support our kids and have a home and go on vacation
04:29and keep something in your pocket.
04:30And that's not too much to ask.
04:33It's really not.
04:34It's really not.
04:39And so I was talking to Sam because while all of those commonalities are so similar,
04:47I generally tend to ask, you know, what are some of the particular issues
04:52that are especially resonant in any one community?
04:57And Sam was talking to me about housing.
05:00And I was surprised as he went on and told me in great detail
05:06about how Montana is the number one hardest hit and worst housing market in America.
05:19And I was shocked to hear that as a New Yorker.
05:24I said, what?
05:28He said, yeah, when you look at the average cost of housing pegged to the average wage
05:34and salary here, it's impossible.
05:37It's impossible.
05:41And what a lot of these folks that are dumping in tons of money in congressional races like these,
05:49what they don't understand, what they don't want us to see,
05:52is that the same forces that pushed my family out in New York City
06:00are the same forces that are pushing yours out here too.
06:04Our fight is far more united than people even understand.
06:12And, you know, a lot of people write off places like Montana.
06:16They say that any race here is impossible.
06:21But last year when we came together, we saw thousands of people come together.
06:27And from all sorts of different backgrounds, all sorts of different stories.
06:35And whether we were in Utah or California or wherever we were,
06:41there were everyday people that started to raise their hand.
06:45You know, we're out in Utah.
06:48At that time, every single seat was drawn hopelessly red, or so they would say, right?
06:55But we came together and we rallied about it anyway.
06:58And I said, we come together because we must come together with the faith of a mustard seed.
07:06When we start working with one another, when we start building together,
07:11when we start watching each other's kids so the other can go out and organize the block,
07:16you never know what can happen.
07:19And a year later, a judge struck down Utah's redistricting,
07:24and now they have a blue seat in play.
07:34And it's really not even about blue or red or any of that,
07:38but this is really about people who are accountable to everyday working families,
07:43who don't take big money, but take your voice and your input
07:49and put that in the halls of power.
07:53Shortly after we left that rally, we flew here to Montana, to Missoula,
07:58and we had that rally of 7,500 people.
08:01And there was a young man that introduced me.
08:05He was a union man, a wildland firefighter,
08:10the son of a public school teacher,
08:14and that man's name was Sam Forstack.
08:24Now, we didn't know what was going to happen then.
08:27We were just a couple of folks getting together,
08:30talk about the issues of the day.
08:33But as it turns out, the momentum and the faith of coming together
08:38and organizing and refusing to give up created a window.
08:44And Sam decided to raise his hand
08:46and put his hat in the ring to run for Congress.
08:55Now, Sam has spent his life protecting this state
09:01and believes the people of Montana deserve a government that protects them too.
09:05Sam is a smoke jumper.
09:09And I had to learn what a smoke jumper was.
09:13As it turns out, it's one of the most dangerous jobs there is.
09:20I learned about how smoke jumpers parachute out of small planes into wildfires
09:27that other firefighters can't reach.
09:30And they work for days to keep the fire from reaching the next town.
09:34And let's talk about this, because that means something.
09:38Because when something is burning in this state, Sam runs towards the fire.
09:44That's the kind of person he is.
09:47And that's the kind of person we have the opportunity to send to Congress.
10:00Now, like a lot of people here, Sam knows what it's like
10:04to have your future and your life shaped by money
10:09or by not having enough of it.
10:11He knows what it's like to work a thousand hours of overtime
10:16and still not have enough at the end of the month.
10:19After college, Sam dreamed of going to law school.
10:22But he looked at his student loan debt
10:24and realized that he couldn't afford it.
10:27And you know, that was the same story that I had experienced.
10:30I wanted to go to medical school.
10:32But my dad had passed away and my mom was a single mom
10:36and I knew that my family couldn't afford
10:38for me to spend years out of the workforce
10:41and that I needed to get to work right away.
10:44This is what it means to be a working person
10:46in not only Montana, but everywhere.
10:50And this is about all of us together.
10:56So, like so many of us,
10:59Sam went to work showing up to help
11:02on what is often the worst day of someone's life.
11:06And between fire seasons,
11:08Sam never stopped showing up for Montanans.
11:11He worked as an organizer across this state.
11:14He went to Helena as an advocate at the state legislature
11:17and took on the politicians trying to ban books
11:20and gut public education
11:22and shut down rural libraries.
11:29And I've got to tell you, Montana,
11:31with what's going on, as we see with AI,
11:34they're trying to take the quality
11:36out of our public education, too.
11:39And we have to make sure that there are protections
11:42for our communities and our families.
11:45When Elon Musk tried to gut the Forest Service
11:50and the public land agencies that kept this state running,
11:55Ryan Zinke didn't stand up for Montanans.
11:59But Sam did.
12:01As vice president of his union local,
12:04NFFE Local 60,
12:09Sam made sure Montanans knew exactly what was at stake.
12:14The firefighters who protect the towns,
12:17the rangers who keep our public lands open,
12:20and the wages and benefits of working people
12:23in every corner of this state.
12:25Through all of it,
12:26Sam saw what working people in this state are up against.
12:30He saw families putting in full weeks of work
12:33and still coming up short at the end of the month.
12:36He saw parents who couldn't find child care
12:39they could afford
12:40or couldn't find child care at all.
12:43And he saw private equity firms
12:45buying up mobile home parks across Montana
12:49and jacking up the rent on people
12:51who had nowhere else to go.
12:55And he saw who showed up
12:57when everything fell apart.
12:59Neighbors.
13:01Public servants.
13:02Unions.
13:03Tenant organizations.
13:06Not the corporations
13:07who were busy denying the claims,
13:10but working people coming together
13:12to share what they had
13:13so that the entire community could survive.
13:17And that is what I have learned
13:20is the spirit of Montana.
13:22And that's why Sam isn't taking a dime
13:26of corporate PAC money.
13:35Because Sam knows what happens
13:37when politicians start answering to corporations
13:39instead of the people they were sent to represent.
13:43And I understand the anxieties,
13:46especially when it comes to being able to afford a place to live
13:50and to feel like our ability to have one home
13:56is being eclipsed by other people's fourth, fifth, and sixth home.
14:05Now, there are some folks that would tell you, Montana.
14:09There's some folks that will tell you,
14:11that's just the way it is.
14:13And that's just the free market.
14:16And that's just because that's the value of that property.
14:21But I want us to consider a different understanding of this.
14:26Because I really think that someone values their first home,
14:32their only home,
14:34a lot more than they value their tenth.
14:42A lot more.
14:44And I think the value of us not being one paycheck away from the street
14:51is way bigger than the marginal tax value
14:56of someone's write-off house
14:58that I'm sure some people even forget that they have
15:01in terms of how wealthy some people are.
15:05And we have to make sure that everyone can just have a shot.
15:10That's what this is about.
15:13Sam also stands with the Montana Plan,
15:16the fight to get corporate money out of our election.
15:23And Montana, you can do it.
15:27You can do it.
15:28We can pass the Montana Plan.
15:31We can join Hawaii.
15:33We can make sure that we set precedent
15:35in states across the country
15:37and tell Washington, D.C.,
15:39if you don't kick money out of politics,
15:41we will hear at home.
15:49It's a battle Montanans have been waging for over a century,
15:54and it's why this state wrote
15:56one of the most populous constitutions
15:59in the United States of America.
16:02We're coming home, Montana.
16:07Declaring more than 50 years ago
16:10that the rivers and streams belong to the people.
16:13That the air and the water must be protected.
16:17And that ordinary citizens
16:20are the foundation of our government,
16:24not anyone or anything else.
16:29Montana, it was you that etched those words
16:32into their constitution.
16:34Because you had to.
16:36You knew it way back then.
16:38You knew it.
16:40Because this place is a place.
16:44Because a place this beautiful,
16:46you have known,
16:47has always drawn people
16:48who wanted to take from it
16:50without ever giving back.
16:51And in every generation,
16:54this state has had ordinary people
16:58here stand up and fight back.
17:04It was Montana that took on the railroads
17:07that carved up the state.
17:09It was Montana that fought mining companies
17:11that poisoned your rivers.
17:13And it was Montana that had the courage
17:15to hold the United States government accountable
17:18for the harm it caused
17:20our Native American brothers and sisters
17:22and the land that it took from them.
17:25That is Montana.
17:27Because the fight that shaped this state
17:29didn't disappear
17:30when the railroads stopped growing
17:32or when the robber barons
17:34lost their power back in that day
17:36and they just changed shape
17:38into this one today.
17:39The fight changed shape.
17:41It looks like what happened
17:43to the hospital in Big Fork,
17:45a community losing the care it depended on
17:48because somebody in a boardroom
17:50decided that Montanans
17:51weren't profitable enough
17:53and somebody in Washington
17:54decided to cut a trillion dollars
17:56out of our health care system to match.
18:00And that is why Sam
18:02is fighting for Medicare for all.
18:09Because health care in this country
18:12should not be a luxury good.
18:15It should not depend on whether a hedge fund
18:17thinks your town or your life is worth saving.
18:21Every Montanan, every American,
18:24deserves the dignity of health care as a right.
18:32Montana, your fight also looks like housing costs
18:35rising so high here,
18:37right here in Missoula,
18:39in Bozeman,
18:40and in the Flathead Valley
18:41that teachers and nurses
18:43can't even afford to live
18:45in the communities
18:45that they teach and serve.
18:48It looks like workers putting in overtime
18:51while the wealth they create
18:53leaves town on a private jet.
18:57That's the fight.
18:58And Sam Forstag has spent his whole life
19:02on the right side of it.
19:06And Montana, I'll tell you something.
19:09I'll tell you something that we learned back in New York.
19:12Second homes can't vote.
19:15Third homes can't vote.
19:16Fourth homes can't vote.
19:19But your family,
19:21the five people in the only home,
19:23in the only house that you call home,
19:25y'all can vote.
19:27Y'all have a vote.
19:31So now the question before this state
19:33isn't whether we should send another politician
19:35to Washington.
19:37It's whether we will send someone
19:38who will fight.
19:40A working person
19:42who understands
19:44real life
19:46that doesn't need to have it
19:47explained to them
19:49but has actually had to make
19:51the dollars and cents work
19:53at the end of the month
19:54that knows what it's like
19:55to jump into the fire,
19:57to put your life on the line,
19:59to see your family
20:00have to consider moving out of town.
20:03It is that proximity
20:05that gives us the urgency
20:06to change things
20:07not one day
20:08but now.
20:14And Sam has been running
20:16toward that his whole life.
20:19Look around the room.
20:21You are the people
20:23who keep Montana running.
20:25You are the people
20:26who will make sure
20:27that these mountains
20:28and these rivers
20:29and these wide open skies
20:30are still here
20:31for the next generation.
20:33It is up to everyone
20:35in this room
20:36to make sure
20:37that years from now
20:39when everyone
20:41in this country
20:42and when everyone else
20:43has that blessed experience
20:45of flying below
20:47that cloud line
20:48that that land
20:49is still there
20:50and this place
20:52is a place
20:52that working people
20:53can still call home.
20:58And I know
20:59that you can do it.
21:02Sam is asking
21:04for the chance
21:05to take that fight
21:06to Washington
21:06and I think
21:08he should have that chance.
21:13He is going
21:15to the fire
21:15the same way
21:17that he has gone
21:18to the fire here
21:19but he cannot
21:20do it alone.
21:21The primary election
21:23is in five days.
21:26It's in five days.
21:27And our responsibility
21:29here
21:30is to help
21:32people believe
21:33because so often
21:36we are bargained
21:38down.
21:39We are taught
21:40to bargain down
21:41what is possible
21:42for our lives.
21:44We've been taught
21:46to lower
21:47our expectations
21:48for things
21:50that a generation
21:50ago
21:51were afforded
21:52to every American.
21:55It was not
21:56it didn't feel
21:56like the fantasy
21:57that it sometimes
21:58feels today
21:5930, 40 years ago
22:02to be able
22:03to have a job
22:04one job
22:05support your family
22:06go on that vacation
22:08and put some money
22:09in your pocket.
22:10But slowly
22:11over decades
22:12there's been
22:13so much work
22:15to get
22:16the aspirations
22:17of working people
22:18smaller
22:19and smaller
22:20and to see
22:22how little
22:23we are willing
22:24to accept.
22:26And this year
22:27this time
22:28this moment
22:29today
22:30is the moment
22:31we draw the line
22:32in the sand
22:33and say
22:34enough.
22:43Ask your skeptical
22:45neighbor
22:46to believe
22:47it's the only thing
22:49that we have.
22:50Our hope
22:52is the only thing
22:53that creates change.
22:56And that's why
22:57so many people
22:58try to talk us
22:58out of it.
22:59That's why
23:00so many people
23:01try to deride it
23:02as naive
23:03as out of touch
23:06and cynicism
23:07gets sold to us
23:08as sophistication.
23:10I assure you
23:10it is not.
23:12I assure you
23:13it is not.
23:15What is
23:16very sophisticated
23:18complicated
23:18is understanding
23:20full well
23:21the forces
23:21that are working
23:22against us
23:23and deciding
23:24to fight
23:25anyway.
