Governor Greg Gianforte issued a statement following the announcement of Congressman Ryan Zinke’s retirement from the U.S. House of Representatives. In his message, Gianforte recognized Zinke’s years of public service in various roles.
“Ryan Zinke has been a champion for Montana and the United States throughout his career of dedicated service as a U.S. Navy SEAL, a Montana state senator, a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, and U.S. Secretary of the Interior. He’s been an outspoken advocate for Montanans and our values from protecting public lands to restoring accountability in the federal government. Thank you, Ryan and Lola, for your many years of public service to the State of Montana,” said Governor Gianforte.
Zinke has served in several capacities at both state and federal levels over his career.
