A Late Fall Walk Around the Roundup Riverwalk Revealed Yellow Leaves and Blue Skies. Our clocks took a turn, and now we’re into earlier dark nights and brighter mornings.

According to the Congressional Resea...

The DEQ floodplain on Meat House Rd.and our river walk trails are NOT public lands to be used by ATVs or roaring pickup trucks.The DEQ used Fema funds to stake down celery green serpentine objects that are filled with absorbent filament.

As a longtime rancher and legislator, protecting rural Montanans from legislation that infringes upon economic liberties and promotes government interference is my top priority.

This will severely hurt Montana ranchers, farmers, and workers by increasing personal expenditures to comply with the EPA mandate. Requiring Montana families to purchase electric c...
In March, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finalized the nation’s most stringent tailpipe emissions rules to date – a move that has been met with much pushback. To comply with these mandates from the EPA, two-thirds of all new vehicles will need to be electric by 2032. The impacts of this de facto gas car ban are distressing and are being blatantly overlooked, lacking any consideration for consumers. Without lawmakers taking immediate action to put a stop to this mandate, many concerning challenges will unfold across the nation, and...
