Jon Tester actually said...

"This bill is a made-in-Montana solution for our economic and environmental woes."

"We wish to express our deep appreciation for Senator Tester's visionary leadership in sponsoring the Forest Jobs and Recreation Act and urge passage by the Committee."

"I thank you for introducing S233, and are highly encouraged that this will implement an oil and gas lease and mining withdrawal for Flathead National Forest."

"The Forest Jobs and Recreation Act represents a turning point in the long and tense debate over the management of federal land in Montana."
