Not Bought.
Not Backing Down.
Fighting for Healthcare, Affordability, and an end to Corruption. For every Montana family.
Top vs. Bottom.

“This fight ahead isn’t left versus right, it is top versus bottom. It is time to reclaim our state, protect what is ours, and build a Montana that truly works for us all.”
Russ Cleveland
Three Things That
Affect Every Montanan
Healthcare
Healthcare is a human right. Improved Medicare for All, lower drug prices, stronger rural clinics, and fully funded VA benefits for every veteran who served.
See the platform →Affordability
Fair wages, affordable housing, workers’ rights, and a 50:1 pay cap. An economy that works for the people who actually live and work here.
See the platform →Corruption
End Citizens United. Ban dark money. No PACs. A notarized pledge, not a promise, to put Montana’s people above special interests.

Personal Loss
When Russ and his wife Kate lost their oldest daughter, Madison, to leukemia at the age of 13, they saw firsthand how broken the American healthcare system was.
The pain of watching her suffer was matched only by the anger of watching politicians slash critical funding for medical research in the pursuit of more tax breaks for billionaires.
That moment changed everything.
Russ is running for Congress because no parent should ever have to watch their child fight a deadly disease in a system rigged against them.

“I support Russell because when I taught at St Regis School, I watched the Cleveland family come into the community, create affordable housing for teachers, step into needed coaching positions, and care for children as if they were their own. He is a true man of the people and will fight for what is right for the citizens of Montana.”
