Just a few months shy of the voting age by Nov. 3, 2020, I will have to depend on others to make the right choice for young Montana women like me. With this letter, I ask Montana citizens to pay close attention to the governor’s race, and in particular, the voting record of Greg Gianforte. […]

Daines stopped in Gardiner to take more credit for the Great American Outdoors Act, which permanently reauthorized and fully funded the Land and Water Conservation Fund, something Sen.

I have watched Chris Pope work for our community since he arrived in Bozeman 30 years ago. Almost immediately he served on numerous boards committed to the betterment of the community including numerous downtown boards, Eagle Mount and the Montana Conservation Corps. Chris established himself as a trusted member of each of these boards because […]
