Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Election 2026: Meet Incumbent Flathead County Sheriff Brian Heino
Q: What kind of wage level do you consider fair for starting deputies, and how do you balance pay with budget constraints?
A fair starting wage is in the mid- to upper-30s (dollar figures have evolved with market rates), and we must balance staffing needs and wage increases against funding sources and the overall budget to maintain fiscal responsibility.
Election 2026: Meet Incumbent Flathead County Sheriff Brian Heino
Q: Could you tell me what growing up in this area was like and how it shaped your career in law enforcement?
Growing up in the valley created deep community ties and a sense of responsibility to give back; those roots helped motivate a career aimed at serving neighbors and building a career-long commitment to public safety.
