Tom Berry is for Less Regulation in Montana

Tom Berry’s successful 3-term experience in the Montana Legislature has always followed a goal of less regulation for businesses and individuals. Ray Gorham’s fictional advertisements and inexperienced door-to-door sales pitches include his false statement “Tom Berry only voted for increased regulations.”

The fact is Tom Berry has always fought for less regulations. His record is clear. Tom Berry:

sponsored legislation giving real estate agents greater freedom to govern themselves
sponsored legislation granting state-owned banks less regulation
sponsored legislation to reduce regulations on Otter Creek coal tracts
voted to eliminate tax on business equipment for small businesses

Canadian globe-trotter and states hopper wants a shot in the last best place

Posted on April 15, 2014 by Tom Berry For Musselshell County Commissioner

Canadian-born, globe trotter and U.S. States hopper (lived in California, Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, Indiana, Iowa, Arkansas) Ray Gorham, currently resides in Shepherd Montana and has filed to run as a Republican candidate for House District 40, challenging successful three-term Republican incumbent and Montana native Tom Berry.

Gorham was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, and then crossed over the border (legally) to attend the Brigham Young School in Utah, where he learned accounting. Ray admits that two years of studying accounting was enough for him to know he didn’t want to spend his career keeping up with tax laws and government regulations, so after graduation he found a job at Wal-Mart, then Flying J (living in Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, Indiana, Iowa, Arkansas) and eventually attempted an unnamed restaurant in California before his latest venture to Montana. Gorham is a hobby fiction writer when his log business is slow.

The Ray website texts include incorrect paraphrased and misleading statements about incumbent Tom Berry’s voting record. General texts written by Ray are nearly void of the word Montana, and the layouts bear no image or visual element of Montana or the U.S.A., with the exception of lake scene and a picture of Ray Photoshopped (digitally-edited) in the foreground.
