In the 67th session of the Montana State Legislature, more than half of all Montana legislators received failing scores of less than 50 percent. Rather than abiding by promises to protect Montana’s outdoors, legislators voted to repeal the Renewable Energy Portfolio Standard, weaken clean water protections and pass several anti-democracy bills.
While many legislators abandoned their conservation values during the session, the Montana Legislature came together to implement the state’s recreational marijuana program and agreed to use a portion of the revenue to make a historic investment in our state parks, trails, wildlife conservation and Habitat Montana. Habitat Montana is a popular conservation tool used to improve access, acquire more public lands and protect working farms and ranches in perpetuity.
