Jon Tester holds up his hands with a smile. He's showing off his left hand, which is missing an index, middle, and ring finger.
John, can I tell you a little story about me?
I grew up on my family’s farm and it’s still home today. That explains a lot about me.
When I was a kid, I lost three fingers on my left hand while working in our family’s butcher shop. I don’t even remember putting my hand there — but I can damn sure remember rushing to a local doctor.
Here’s why I’m telling you this: just like my $12 flattop haircut from my local barbershop back home and my collection of dirt-stained t-shirts, my background is a big part of the reason I remain grounded and focused amid the partisan politics and nonsense happening in our government.
With all the chaos in Washington (especially now), you need somebody who will fight to protect our public lands, create good-paying jobs, and ensure rural communities have hospitals within driving distance in case of an emergency.
I’m pretty different from most people who end up in the U.S. Senate. I’m just a dirt farmer trying to do what’s right for the people in my state and across the country.
DONATE NOW

I’m officially running for reelection, so here’s the part where I ask: Can you split a donation between Sen. Tom Carper and me to become a Founding Donor of my campaign to help us block Mitch McConnell from retaking the Senate?
You don’t need ten fingers to know right from wrong and you can bet I’m going to spend every single day trying to do right by working families, farmers, students, and veterans here in Montana and across the country.
I appreciate your support, and anything you can pitch in today will go a long way for our grassroots campaign.
Thanks again,
Jon
