Rehberg makes the Oscars

February 27, 2012

Catch the Oscars this evening?  Well, Rehberg made at least two appearances during the 3 hour program.  The ad called out Rehberg on the issue of public land access, which is becoming an increasing problematic issue for the Congressman.  Remember these three spots?

In his analysis of the funds raised in the 2012 Montana Senate race, Matt Gouras pointed out a detail that has to make Representative Rehberg nervous.

Tester and Rehberg on Citizens United

January 30, 2012
