Ryan Zinke, U.S. Congressman representing Montana's 1st district since 2023, shared his perspectives and policy initiatives on Twitter regarding various state and national issues. Born in Bozeman, Zinke currently resides in Whitefish and has a history of service in both the Montana Senate and U.S. Congress. He has expressed opinions on Montana’s natural beauty, judiciary overreach, and energy policy.

On April 6, 2025, Zinke celebrated "406 Day," a local observance dedicated to Montana, by inviting residents to "join me in taking a moment to thank God for the most beautiful state in the Union, the last best place."

On April 8, 2025, Zinke criticized what he described as judicial overreach, stating "radical, low-level judges are trying to usurp executive and congressional power all over the country." He emphasized the importance of maintaining the balance among the three branches of government and announced his support for the No Rogue Act.

Later that day, Zinke commented on recent developments regarding Montana's energy policies, highlighting a change in the federal stance on clean coal. He remarked on "great news from the President," noting that Montana-made energy is set to provide cheaper, cleaner power, benefiting the state’s economy.
