AFP Action Endorses Aaron Flint for Congress 

MISSOULA, MT — Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) today announced its endorsement of Aaron Flint in his bid to represent Montana’s first congressional district in the United States House of Representatives, backing a decorated combat veteran, fifth-generation Montanan, and longtime voice for people across the state. 

Following the September 11 attacks, Flint returned to Montana and enlisted in the military. He went on to serve more than 20 years in the Army National Guard and Reserve, deploying to Iraq and Afghanistan and supporting special operations missions in Africa and the Middle East. Flint earned two Bronze Stars and retired as a lieutenant colonel. 

For more than two decades, Flint has traveled Montana from Ekalaka to Libby, giving a voice to ranchers, small-business owners, workers, and families too often ignored by Washington. That commitment reflects AFP Action’s grassroots mission of empowering people, expanding freedom, and holding government accountable. 

AFP Action’s sister organization, Americans for Prosperity–Montana (AFP–MT), has long partnered with Flint to highlight the rising cost of living and bring relief directly to Montana families. Together, they held more than 100 events statewide and brought the voices of Montanans directly to Washington, D.C., including during the State of the Union. 

Now Flint is running to bring that same service-driven, grassroots approach to Congress, focused on lowering costs, reining in spending, and restoring accountability in Washington. 

Jesse Ramos, AFP Action Senior Advisor, issued the following statement: 

“I’ve had the opportunity to know Aaron Flint not just as a leader, but as a friend, and what you see publicly is exactly who he is behind the scenes. For more than two decades, he has served his country, traveled Montana, listened to people, and made sure their voices are heard. He genuinely cares about this state and has built his life around serving it. That is exactly what our organization stands for: empowering people, not politicians. AFP Action is proud to support Aaron Flint for Congress.” 

AFP Action will deploy its grassroots infrastructure in support of Flint, including door-to-door voter engagement, targeted outreach, and data-driven voter contact across Montana. 

AFP Action Backs Jennifer Balkcom in NC-11

Hendersonville, NC – Today, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) announced its endorsement of Jennifer Balkcom for the open U.S. House seat in NC-11.

Tyler Voigt, senior advisor for AFP Action, released the following statement:

“As a state legislator, Jennifer Balkcom showed time and time again that she puts good policy ahead of politics. She sponsored bills to remove barriers for state employment, cosponsored a portable benefits bill which allow independent contractors to more easily achieve their American dream, and voted to expand the state’s school choice program. She also opposes tax increases and co-sponsored a constitutional amendment to rein in out-of-control property tax hikes. Balkcom’s record proves she will fight for the policies that will put North Carolinians first, and AFP Action is proud to support her campaign.” 

ICYMI: AFP Action Grassroots, Rep. Crank Hit the Doors for Day of Action 

COLORADO SPRINGS, CO — On Saturday, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) and Representative Jeff Crank gathered grassroots volunteers from across Colorado Springs for a Day of Action supporting the Congressman’s re-election. The Day of Action continues AFP Action’s support for Crank, a proven, common-sense conservative voice for El Paso County.  

Congressman Jeff Crank released the following statement: 

“El Paso County voters are deeply concerned about the radical socialist agenda gaining ground on the left. They want leaders who will stand up, fight back, and defend the values that make our communities strong. In Congress, I will continue working to protect economic prosperity, rein in burdensome regulations, and lower the costs hurting middle-class families.” 

AFP Action Senior Advisor Brittany Trujillo released the following statement: 

“Jeff Crank is a Colorado native who has dedicated years of his 9-to-5 to bettering Colorado, and this weekend, he was back in the community doing exactly that, knocking doors, talking directly with constituents, and listening to the people he represents. 

“Jessica Killin claims Colorado, but Washington, D.C. can claim much of her recent political career. She only recently moved back to Colorado Springs after spending years building her career in Washington. She now describes herself as a ‘middle-of-the-road centrist, almost center-right Democrat, but voters deserve to look beyond the label and examine the record. 

“Killin has publicly opposed the largest tax cut in U.S history. While Congressman Crank has voted to keep more money in the pockets of Colorado families. Colorado voters deserve the opportunity to compare the records, not just the rhetoric.” 

Volunteers knocked doors, speaking directly with voters about Crank’s record of fighting inflation, defending taxpayers, and unleashing American energy — and about the stakes of the race against Democratic challenger Jessica Killin.  

AFP Action’s investment in the race spans direct mail, a significant digital buy across display and video, and sustained grassroots organizing through Election Day. AFP Action endorsed Crank in February.
