Dear Friends and Fellow Constituents,
As we step into 2024, I am delighted to formally announce my bid for reelection to Senate District 44. Grateful for the opportunity you’ve given me to serve and with a heart full of optimism, I am committed to working tirelessly, knowing that every effort we make to protect our Republic is crucial, and praying for discernment as we navigate the path ahead.
Reflecting on the past 10 years, I take immense pride in some key legislative accomplishments that directly benefit you, the residents of our great state:
In 2021, I championed SB400, the Parents Bill of Rights, safeguarding fundamental parental rights against government interference. This legislation nullifies government immunity and provides parents with a means to seek recompense when their rights are violated.
SB518 in 2023 empowered parental rights in education, allowing them to be more involved and ensuring their right to excuse their child from objectionable presentations. It also established the need for written parental permission when a minor seeks to use pronouns different from their sex at birth.
Additionally, my dedication to living wage jobs, road safety and infrastructure funding led to the passage of SB47. MTDOT is now offering free Entry Level Drivers Training for Commercial Driver’s License programs. Montana is now in compliance with federal regulations and our ability to get our Montana made products to market across the nation is now protected.
I've also been a tireless advocate for Election Security and Tax Reform, vital components of a free and thriving community.
My leadership roles, such as being the Founder and Founding Chairman of the Montana Freedom Caucus, Chairman of Transportation, and past roles like Elected Legislative Majority Whip, showcase my commitment to effective governance.
However, beyond these accomplishments, my unwavering dedication to upholding the Constitution of the United States and the state of Montana is what truly defines my service. I consider it not just a duty but a calling.
Since 2014, my voting record consistently places me in the top 15% of my legislative class for a commitment to limited government, personal responsibility, and Constitutional conservatism. In the last two sessions, I dutifully stood at the very top of the in the support of our Constitutions.
Recognitions such as the "Keeper of the Tenth" award from Montana Agri Businesswomen’s and "A" ratings from various esteemed organizations like the NRA, MSSA, Montana Family Foundation, and more, speak to my unwavering dedication to protecting states' rights and the values we hold dear.
In seeking your support for reelection, I am committed to continuing this journey with the same passion, dedication, and integrity that have defined my service thus far. Together, let's build a future that truly reflects the values and aspirations of the people of Senate District 44.
Faithfully for Freedom-
Senator Theresa Manzella, Senate District 44
Paid for by Manzella For Montana. Theresa Manzella Treasurer, PO Box 1100, Hamilton, MT 59840
Please allow me to introduce myself. I’m Theresa Manzella and I’ve had the honor of representing the good people of HD85 for the past 6 years.
I’m a Christian, Constitutional, Conservative, Republican with an 100% proven voting record over the last three sessions, from the Montana Shooting Sports Association, the NRA, the Montana Family Foundation, United Property Owners of Montana, and A rated with Legistats/Legislator Loyalty (as compared to my opponents recent F.) I’ve earned the Conservative Achievement Award from the Conservative Union for the past three sessions for adherence to the U.S. Constitution; I’m the 2017 “Keeper of the 10th” award winner from Montana Agri-Women and I’ve also been awarded the Phyllis Schlafly Eagle Forum Award.
I was elected by Republicans across the state of Montana to lead the delegation to the RNC in 2016 which was ultimately the first step in the election of President Trump and getting our county back on the right track. I have been dubbed the “Donald Trump of Ravalli County” by Democrats for my candid, straight talk; which is something I embrace.
I was elected by my legislative peers to the leadership position of Whip in 2017, and I serve as the Vice Chair of Natural Resources.
After much thought, prayer and encouragement, I’ve decided to run for Senate District 44 - encompassing Corvallis, Victor, Stevensville, Florence and Pinesdale. Although it was not my plan to move beyond the House of Representatives, after witnessing such a dramatic change in Rep. Ballance's voting habits last session, I believe it’s my civic duty to give the good citizens of the district a choice between two Republican candidates with very different ideas of what it means to be a Republican.
My opponent voted with the Democrats almost 40% of the time on loyalty scored bills, which included support for increased Property Tax, Gas Tax, Bed Tax , utility rate increases, and usurping the will of the people with her vote in support of Obamacare Medicaid Expansion, which provides taxpayer paid abortions and sex changes.
I have faith that our citizens prefer the traditional, conservative definition of Republican, over the trending "progressive" version threatening our party, our state and our country.
My principles aren't for sale to the highest bidder or latest special interest.
As a true Conservative, I will always fight for our citizens individual rights, and against government waste, fraud, abuse and overreach.
