Commonsense, Collaborative Leadership and a Sincere Desire to make a Difference
I’m Mark Lewis. My wife, Dawn, and I live in Middle Creek Parklands. We have a 9th grader and an 11th grader at Gallatin High. We are proud Bozeman residents who have chosen to raise our family, own a small business (Montana Spirits & Wine), participate in community events, and enjoy great outdoor recreation in our hometown. We are also members of Holy Rosary Parish.
I’ve spent a career in business working at the highest levels of sports administration, from forming revenue-generating partnerships for the NCAA to helping make the Salt Lake Olympics a success for the western United States. Throughout my work, I’ve learned how to bring people together, tackle large tasks, and make dollars stretch farther. I think Helena could use a good dose of commonsense, and I’m running for the Legislature to be a part of solving complex challenges based on these key skills I’ve developed in business.
My Pledge to you
I want to try to make a difference and I need your help in doing so. If elected, my pledge to you is simple:
1 /
I will listen to and work with anyone who wants to make life better for Montanans. No party or individual has a monopoly on good ideas. I will collaborate and get things done, for all of us.
2 /
I will be a committed steward of every tax dollar you send to Helena. Every dollar spent by the government should be appropriated only when necessary.
3 /
I will vote to lower your taxes. Period. The Legislature has lowered income taxes in the last two sessions; I support this. However, we also need to immediately address property taxes. I will take realistic, actionable ideas from the Governor’s Property Tax Task Force and turn them into legislation.
4 /
I will focus on issues that matter to you, not to any special interest group or ideological think tank. We need to come together and find common ground the way Americans always have. The only approval I am seeking is yours.
5 /
I have no intention or desire to become a career politician. I will strictly follow term limits, which to me are important. Public service has never been a life goal for me. But I feel compelled to run now because our challenges are so great, and I believe I can offer a voice of reason in the halls of our State Capitol.
