What's New:*
Last
week, President Trump signed my bipartisan bill
[link 1] to honor four servicemen who tragically died in a B-47
Bomber crash in 1962. After nearly six decades, the memory and service of
Capt. Bill Faulconer, Lt. Fred Hixenbaugh, Lt. David Sutton, and Lt.
Lloyd Sawyers will be forever memorialized at the site of their crash in
Park County, Montana.
*Why It Matters: *
For years, their families
and local advocates have worked to place a memorial plaque at the site
of the crash located on a ridge off Emigrant Peak. However,
bureaucratic red tape made it impossible. That's why I worked withthe
localcommunity and the families of the fallen servicemembers to introduce a
bill that would name the ridge "B-47 Ridge" and allow the placement of a
memorial plaque so that visitors to the site will know what happened
and that the memory of these brave men will live on for generations to
come.
Whats Next: *
I am proud to have worked with my colleagues in
Congress to get this bill signed into law, including Congressman
Gianforte who championed the bill in the House and Senator Tester who
joined me to pass it in the Senate. I look forward to the day we can hike
up B-47 Ridge to place the memorial plaque in honor of these brave
servicemen and their families.
Best Wishes,
