Governor Bullock calls for bipartisanship, says Montana can be ‘shining example’

Democratic Gov. Steve Bullock, after being sworn in to start his second term Monday, emphasized unity between his party and Republicans, who control the Legislature and took back three of the state’s five elected statewide offices in November’s election.

"The differences we have, while amplified at times, are small compared to what unites us," Bullock told about 400 people who packed the Capitol rotunda and gathered on the two floors above.

"Before any of us are Democrats or Republicans, we’re Montanans. And Montanans elected us to serve, not to score political points."
