Brian Schweitzer on Tax Reform

Democratic MT Governor

Cuts taxes if feasible; most critical is new business in MT

I will say that I'll try and cut taxes whenever I can. I'll try and make government more efficient. I'll try and grow Montana's economy. I'm attracted new businesses to come to Montana so our economy is booming. I bring small businesses and big businesses. Montana is open for business.
