I worked with Hank starting in 2007 and can't say enough good things about the man. He's an honest, forthright & dependable person with a solid conservation ethic & desire to bring people together. He is well liked by every stakeholder I can think of, and he's known for his integrity & no bullshit approach.
I was fairly concerned given who else was in the running, but I think this is a really solid pick by Governor Gianforte. It's all fun & games to rail on FWP when you're on the campaign trail, it's a heck of a lot different once you look under the hood & see all the moving parts & how passionate people are about these issues. I thought GG's picks for the Commission weren't terrible either.
