Campaign themes

2014

Rogan's website highlighted the following campaign themes:

Economic growth and sustainability for Montana:

When industries come and then go it kills the local economies. We need to ensure Montana jobs and industries are sustainable over the long term. In my opinion the core elements required to achieve sustainable jobs are:

  • Education, continuing education & training: We must ensure our students have access to quality education at all levels. We must also maintain focus on continuing education and training for those already in the workforce so they can excel on a national and global level.
  • Development of resources (natural, agricultural, and intellectual): We have an abundance of resources that produce an equal abundance of jobs and revenue for Montana. But we must also develop these resources responsibly and with a long-term vision.
  • Use of and access to technology: Technology is essential in developing our resources. The days of textbooks are almost gone and now one cannot have education or training without access to technology. Technology also plays a large role in the development of our resources by increasing production and lessening environmental impacts.

Keep taxes in check:

Montana is missing out on economic opportunities because of our high property taxes compared to other states in the region. We must become more competitive in order to sustain Montana businesses as well as create investment in Montana.

Government inefficiencies:

  • Successful businesses are fiscally responsible, efficient, and have the ability to adapt. We should expect and receive the same from our government.
  • Assess government programs for inefficiencies and make improvements so our tax revenue is being fully maximized (less waste!).
  • Before increasing or decreasing funding for (or elimination or creation of) any government program we should first look at how efficient or inefficient the program is being administered.[2][3]
