Fox News reported:

Tim Sheehy – businessman, firefighting pilot, and former Navy SEAL – is “answering the call to serve” in officially launching a 2024 campaign for the U.S. Senate in Montana.

The Republican officially announced his candidacy exclusively with Fox News Digital Tuesday calling for “a new generation of leadership” in his bid to unseat vulnerable incumbent Sen. John Tester, D-Mont., in 2024.

He immediately picked up 3 high-profile endorsements.
