Quotes:
“When I was ten years old I said I'm going to be a lawyer because I want to be president of the United States and I figured being a lawyer was the way to get there… I have since decided that that is too heavy a burden to bear. There are people better suited to run the country.” -Keeley McKay
“This is who I am, and I'm no better or worse because of how I look or what I'm wearing.”- Keeley McKay
“I think everyone needs to like schedule at least a month to go out west. I don't know, take some time just do it and see how Montanans live. Because I feel like it changed my world.”- Jordan Lacenski
