Sam Forstag

Smokejumper. Union leader. Running for Congress in MT-01 to build an economy that works for working people.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

I’m Sam Forstag - I’m a smokejumper, a union leader, and I’m running for Congress because for too long, Montanans have been breaking their backs just to fall further behind. Together, we can build an economy that works for working people.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

Thank you, Hamilton! We had 120 folks show up in the Bitterroot Valley tonight, 200 in Browning two nights ago, and over 100 in Kalispell three nights ago...working Montanans are coming to take our power back! Five days left to get your ballots in! We can do this, friends!

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

Happy First Responders Day!

To all the firefighters, law enforcement officers, EMTs, paramedics, and other public safety workers, thank you all for everything you do to keep our communities safe!

On November 3rd, we have a chance to elect one of our own to Congress

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

The Flint Files reveal what we already knew: if Aaron is elected, he will work for tech billionaires, not Montanans. We deserve a Congressman who’ll answer to us. Make a plan to vote–we’ve got one week left to win this thing!

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

Hey Aaron: we found the files.

After he decided to run for office, Aaron Flint tried to scrub the internet of his old talk radio show. But after a little bit of digging, we found ‘em–and now we know why Aaron tried so hard to get them buried.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

And in the last few days, my opponent has been spamming Montanans with an A.I.-generated deepfake ad—partly because he can’t find any real people who agree with his platform, and partly to demonstrate his loyalty to A.I. executives.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

Join us. Grab your ballot and drop it off at the voting station nearest you–winning our state back is going to take all of us.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

The most corrupt, powerful people in the world are terrified of what’s happening in western Montana right now: working people standing together against their endless greed.

[Social Security Works ❌👑 @SSWorks]

Republican Aaron Flint is running for Montana’s first congressional district.

Flint is running attack ads against @SamForstag, who supports bills that not only eliminate taxes on Social Security, but also extend the life of the program by decades and expand your benefits!

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

200 strong in the Blackfeet Nation tonight ✊ I’m so grateful to everyone who spent their evening rallying to get out the vote with us.

I’m feeling the hope it’s going to take to win this thing. Let’s all take that hope and VOTE!

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

8 days left, Montana. Sign up to volunteer and make a plan to vote.

Let's win this thing!

Spent the morning with Flathead County small business owners: makers, innovators, and folks whose livelihoods depend on our rivers & mountains.

They don't need more chaos from DC. They need a Congress that brings stability on tariffs, lowers costs, and protects good jobs.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

100+ people showed up at our Get Out the Vote Rally in Kalispell. Yesterday we woke up to knock doors in Bozeman, tailgated with the Cats, rallied in Butte last night, and today we held three rallies between here, Polson, and Ronan.

Leaving it all on the field. For all of us.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

And to all the politicians who are trying to sell off our public lands, decimate our wildlife populations, restrict Montana's access to our mountains and rivers, well, I'd start packing up your desk if I was you.

Good luck out there, friends. We can do this.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

Here in Montana, we rely on our public lands for more than just recreation.

A whole lot of us depend on our wild places to make our living, to fill our freezers for the winter, and to provide for our families.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

To those of you who woke up early for opening day today, I wish you the best of luck, and I wish I was in your boots.

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

110+ students at Montana State came to our town hall today! We talked about regulating AI, protecting public lands, the power of unions, and our broken system of campaign finance.

Thank you for coming out, Cats! Vote, volunteer, and tell your friends about what you heard today!

[Sam Forstag @SamForstag]

🚨 A MAGA SuperPAC just dumped another $1.3M into MT-01 for Aaron Flint. That's $7M+ in outside money for Flint.

The President & Mike Johnson came to bail him out. Now JD Vance.

We're up 4 in the polls.

They're spending like they're scared. They see what's coming: all of us.

[Ally Mutnick @allymutnick]

NEW: buys are starting to trickle in from No Going Back PAC

>> $6.3M in #FL25 to target Jared Moskowitz (D)
>> $1M in #WA03 to target MGP (D)
>> $85K so far in open #FL22 for Casey Askar (R)
>> $1M in #FL14 to target Kathy Castor (D)
>>$1.2M in open #MT01 for Aaron Flint (R)

[Jon “Bowzer” Bauman @JonBowzerBauman]

@SamForstag goes on offense on Social Security at our press conference this morning!!!

ONLY Sam has a plan to
protect & expand the program, so his privatizer opponent Aaron Flint, should never bring it up!

[Jon “Bowzer” Bauman @JonBowzerBauman]

A campaign is only as good as its activists. Wow, did they turn out on the courthouse steps in Missoula for @SamForstag!!! Here we all are getting ready for our press conference to begin. Every senior issues advocacy org that endorses endorsed Sam, including my @SSW PAC!!!
