Congressman Ryan Zinke symbolically delivered checks for infrastructure projects in Flathead, Sanders and Lincoln counties on Monday, his first public appearance in Montana since announcing his upcoming retirement.
Zinke and fellow Republican U.S. Sen. Tim Sheehy secured federal funding for bridge and road projects in western Montana in a $102.9 billion spending bill signed by President Donald Trump on Feb. 3. Zinke met with county commissioners in Kalispell, Noxon and Libby to deliver a posterboard version of the checks.
