Montanans deserve a tax code that works for the everyday Montanan, not the people at the top who already have more than enough. Vote ALANI BANKHEAD for U.S. SENATE by NOVEMBER 3rd: www.alaniformt.com

When I’m in Congress, I will make the wealthy pay their fair share by: ★ Removing the Social Security income cap so high earners pay Social Security taxes on all their income. ★ Making wealthy Americans contribute more to protect Montana seniors' safety net

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 13h

Can we at least agree that tax breaks for the wealthy aren't what we want in Congress? Too many of us are already struggling to pay for gas and groceries. We don’t need another rubber stamp like Kurt Alme whose answer is to make struggling Montanans pick up the tab.

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 13h

- During the 2003 tax overhaul, AWOL Alme helped usher in a system where the top income-tax rate fell from 11% to 6.9% while Montanans were already dealing with property reappraisals and rising tax bills.

122

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 13h

Where do I start with AWOL Alme? - As Gianforte’s budget director, Kurt helped advance tax cuts that gave Montanans earning over $500,000 a far bigger break than working families.

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 13h

Alme showing his face would mean answering to shaping tax code for the wealthy. #mtpol

No dark money. No hidden costs. Montanans deserve to know who’s paying to influence elections, who’s benefiting, and what these projects will cost us. Vote ALANI BANKHEAD for U.S. SENATE by NOVEMBER 3rd: www.alaniformt.com

When I’m in Congress, I’ll fight to: ★ Pass the DISCLOSE Act to require political organizations to disclose who is funding their spending. ★ Require public reporting on AI data center power, water and environmental impacts, independent metering, and third-party audits.

192

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

This November, Montanans have a chance to take a major step toward ending dark money by passing I-194. I'm voting for The Montana Plan: I-194 on the ballot to stop anonymous organizations from hiding behind dark money and spending to influence Montana elections.

181

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Montanans want dark money out of their politics - everyone we’ve talked to knocking doors or phone banking has told us the same thing. #mtpol

When elected leaders believe they're above the rules, we end up with U.S. senators and representatives like ours who actively avoid their constituents. It's time to put an end to it. Check out more updates on my Positions page at www.alaniformt.com

★ Bye-bye Kalshi, Polymarket, and other prediction-market betting. I'll fight to prohibit members of Congress and senior officials from betting on prediction markets. ★ No congressional pay when Congress fails to pass a budget.

182

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

★ Close the revolving door with lifetime bans on lobbying the committees and agencies you used to serve on, and on lobbying for foreign governments. ★ Create real ethics oversight with a nonpartisan, bicameral ethics office complete with career investigators, subpoena power, and public findings.

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Enough with the government loopholes. #mtpol As my team and I find more ways our current system allows people in power to avoid faithfully serving the people, I’m adding more commitments to "ACCOUNTABILITY Starting at the Top" ⬇️

I still have Montanans to meet! There are still plenty of conversations to have, misinformation to debunk, and communities to visit before Election Day. I want to hear what matters to you and cast vision for Montana and our country together. #mtpol

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

★ Route clean-energy tax credits to Montanans: residents, co-ops, & communities capture value, not just out-of-state hyperscalers. ★ Keep the biggest power users, like AI data centers, from driving up costs or straining the grid Montana families & farmers depend on. www.alaniformt.com/positions

172

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

★ Back Montana’s rural electric cooperatives to add local solar & battery storage, because they generate/store its own power for less & holds everyone’s rates down (Flathead Electric, Ravalli Electric, & Yellowstone Valley are already leading). From my Positions page: www.alaniformt.com/positions

141

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

★ Never force anyone off diesel or gas, if it’s what keeps your ranch or operation running, that’s your call, not Washington’s. Straight from my Positions page: www.alaniformt.com/positions

131

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

★ Make it easier, not required: back free instant-permitting tools so a home solar permit doesn’t take weeks, while each town and county keeps the call, and support solar that shares the land with grazing, so ranchers can have both. Straight from my Positions page: www.alaniformt.com/positions

131

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

★ Get rural programs moving again: reopen USDA’s Rural Energy for America grants for ranchers and rural businesses, and get Montana’s $43.7 million Solar for All award to the low-income and tribal households it was meant for. Straight from my Positions page: www.alaniformt.com/positions

131

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

★ Expand real choice, never mandates: bring back the home solar and battery credits families used to get, and the EV-charging credit, so any Montanan who wants to add them gets help doing it. Straight from my Positions page: www.alaniformt.com/positions

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Politics tends to get in the way of people heating their homes in the winter, and I'm sick of it. #mtpol Here's what I'll be working on when I'm elected to Congress ⬇️

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

We have a serious sexual predator problem in this country. But we are not powerless to change it. Accountability starts with what we choose to tolerate.

171

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

When powerful people know they won't be investigated or held responsible for their crimes, that message travels. It reaches police departments. Universities. And states' U.S. Attorney's offices. And the earlier that complacency is learned, the harder it is to root out.

1103

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

This is where the Epstein Files come in. The survivors spent years pushing the government to look into business leaders, billionaires, and the Executive Branch of our government who still haven’t faced justice. Accountability has to start at the top.

1123

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Too many young women across Montana have told me they were assaulted on their campuses, reported what happened, and felt ignored or dismissed by the institutions that were supposed to protect them.

194

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

I’ve investigated sex crimes and human trafficking around the world. And I’ve learned something: The sex crimes we normalize at the first step can become what we’re forced to confront at the hundredth.

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

In 2024, a student reported an assault involving 7 male students. Cornell investigated/disciplined the assailants by making them write essays about what they did. 2 of the 7 were expelled. None were charged. It's only coming up now because the survivor filed a civil lawsuit, reopening the case.

193

Alani Bankhead for U.S. Senate (D-MT) @alanib.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

Minimizing sexual violence at the Cornell 7 level is how you get Epstein-level corruption. #mtpol #cornell7 We can start holding powerful perpetrators and enablers accountable for their crimes by electing leaders with a history of bringing predators to justice.

When's the last time Trump had to pay $70 (or more) to fill his tank? Gas prices aren't "inexpensive" -- they're drowning Montana families. #mtpol
