Demand that Families Be Put First
Every triumph working families ever made, whether it child labor protections, 8 hour workday, minimum wage, or weekends off came because we demanded change. It is time again to start demanding family security: a liveable wage, lower cost of living, affordable health policies, rights for women, childcare/eldercare, and education.
Social Security
Social Security isn’t a handout. It’s a promise. A guarantee and responsibility by the government that you have earned through your lifetime of work and for those who qualify for disability. In 2025, DOGE staffers accessed the database of all Social Security then moved the information to cloud based server without explaining why, this puts our information in danger of hackers. I will do everything in my power, to make sure Social Security is protected.
Justice
Corruption erodes trust and puts powerful interests ahead of families and communities. We have seen that billionaires are paying lower income tax than their employees. We need economic justice for our farmers and ranchers. Fighting corruption means, holding the people accountable who are involved in the Epstein files and making sure government decisions serve we the people.
Unity
Montana's strength has always come from its families, it's strong local economies, it's relations with tribal nations and its willingness to come together in times of difficulty. This campaign is a call to embrace humanity, fairness and responsibility to one another. The answer is simple: prioritize families, their economy, and unite around shared goals.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions
about Kate McLaughlin
Why is Kate running for US Senate?
I was writing a performance piece for my music and was researching the Constitution and Women's 50 year fight to get the right to vote. Inspired by women of the past, and motivated by the unrest in America, I decided to run for office to represent families and the working class.
What makes Kate think she can win?
Montana has always voted for who they believe will best represent them in Washington. I know, nothing is more powerful than a coalition of dedicated volunteers having conversations with voters and letting them decide for themselves.
How would Kate be different then Sen. Daines?
I am not influenced by special interests. I am also, not a millionaire and I wouldn't vote for tax cuts that benefit the wealthy. I wouldn't support the nomination of unqualified people to the Department of Justice. I support families, unlike, Daines who has never supported the Affordable Care Act.
Is Kate a patriot or a loyalist?
These definitions are from the American Revolution. A patriot supported independence from Britain and a loyalist wanted to stay with the King. Unlike Sen. Daines, I am not loyal to Trump and consider myself an American Patriot who believes in a democracy founded on independence.
What does Kate think about the Epstein Files?
Nobody is exempt from the law. Arrests must be made and accountability must apply equally, regardless of wealth, power, or political position.
Montana is so divided how do you expect unity?
When we focus on what we have in common: family, increased retail prices due to tariffs and the desire for justice in the Epstein files, we discover what unites us.
