Jon Tester is not an obstructionist, he voted with Trump and the Republicans at least 37 times. That might not seem a lot, but, for a man with dearly little in common with skyscrapers and wheeling and dealing, that is a significant percentage.
2d Session
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVE
September 19, 2014
Referred to the Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, and in addition to the Committee on Homeland Security, for a period to be subsequently determined by the Speaker, in each case for consideration of such provisions as fall within the jurisdiction of the committee concerned
AN ACT
To amend title 5, United States Code, to improve the security of the United States border and to provide for reforms and rates of pay for border patrol agents....
This isn't the only bill he wrote, sponsored and passed into law.
Tester was the primary sponsor of 12 bills that were enacted (click here). The most recent include:
S. 544: A bill to amend the Veterans Access, Choice, and Accountability Act of 2014 to modify the termination date for the Veterans Choice Program, and for other purposes.
S. 719 (114th): A bill to rename the Armed Forces Reserve Center in Great Falls, Montana, the Captain John E. Moran and Captain William Wylie Galt Armed Forces Reserve Center.
S. 1580 (114th): Competitive Service Act of 2015
S. 1125 (114th): Blackfeet Water Rights Settlement Act of 2015
S. 1691 (113th): Border Patrol Agent Pay Reform Act of 2014
S. 2259 (112th): Veterans’ Compensation Cost-of-Living Adjustment Act of 2012S. 997 (112th): East Bench Irrigation District Water Contract Extension Act
He is a prolific writer of legislation.
Additionally, he would never act against a nominee for the VA Administration unless he was provided significant information to excuse a nominee. I believe both Senator Tester and Dr. Ronny Jackson was set up for the sole purpose of defeating Tester's return to the US Senate.
But, with 23 different military personnel, both active and retired, it sounds as though there is legitimacy to the position of Senator Tester. He is not going to engage any form of "Trump Loyalty" in his responsibility to the American people, especially veterans.
But, for Donald Trump to use this particular issue as a campaign slogan is disturbing and is what causes me to speculate about Trump's intention in the first place.
Senator Tester doesn't provide classification to the Russians from the Oval Office and doesn't engage in any immoral, unethical or illegal activity. He is a Senator from Montana that recognizes the need for a strong presence in Washington, DC for his constituency.
Trump is unethical and disgusting to seek out a campaign slogan against Senator Tester, when it was his own lack of judgment and preparation of a US Cabinet Secretary that put Dr. Jackson in a very awkward position.
Mostly what bothered me about Trump was his idea of a "High Quality Family." Really? Are there few high quality families in the USA that this one was so special?
