Bio

I'm Melissa Nikolakakos, a Republican candidate running for House District 20 In Great Falls. As an educator, 4th generation Montanan, mom of four, twenty-year military spouse, and involved community member I pride myself in serving others.

I'm running for office to bring common-sense conservative solutions to Helena and create a better community for our kids and families. Born and raised in small town Montana I want to ensure those time-tested values are at the front and center of our legislative process.

As an educator, a quality education for our children with deep parental involvement is my passion. I've also served as a pre-school president, led with the "Raising Readers" Program (since merged by First Lady Susan Gianforte with the Dolly Parton Imagination Library) serve as a Girl Scout Service Unit Leader, and have served countless times as a PTA president. I'm committed to giving back and serving our community and kids and will work tirelessly every day in Helena to that end.

We face many challenges in today's political climate. Property taxes, inflation, and out of control housing costs are driving families from their homes and real reform is needed now. Fiscal responsibility and low regulation are the centerpieces to a strong economy, the backbone of a healthy opportunity driven society. There's much more but the simple fact is that today both parties are failing our people.

It's time to retire out of touch self serving politicians and elect every-day Montanans who want to civilly solve problems rather than create constant conflict and chaos. I'm ready to bring real-world experience and Montana values to Helena to do just that. I look forward to visiting and hopefully earning your vote to serve our community to the best of my ability.
