We expect our justice system to operate impartially and
efficiently to protect and enforce the rights of all citizens equally, to provide every citizen with a venue to seek redress of grievances, and to ensure the safety and well-being of our
communities.

Rest in Power, Alex and Renee.

Montana's Republicans caved. They traded the well-being of working Montanans for Trump's "big bill," proving once again that their loyalty lies elsewhere. Where's the fiscal conservatism they always claim? It's been abandoned.

HB 609 seeks to criminalize women who suffer pregnancy health complications to such a degree that they need to go to another state to get it.

The legislator who proposed this bill is no defender of women. #mtpol

The Yellowstone county commissioners say that repurposing the Metra Park to an immigration detention center would reduce crime. Except *idc's don't hold criminals - they hold non criminal immigrants. So they're wrong or lying.

But they've informed now, so at this point... πŸ€”

A Landmark Victory in the Legal Fight Against Climate Change It all starts with a provision of the state constitution that guarantees the right β€œto a clean and healthful environment.”

The Montana Supreme Court’s decision protecting the right to a stable climate isn’t just a symbolic victoryβ€”it’s a real, enforceable check on the state’s ability to authorize more greenhouse gas emissions. With @dahlialithwick.bsky.social: slate.com/news-and-pol...

Three nominees to fill the vacancy in House District 46 were chosen by the central committee last night - Mark Nicholson, Anne Ross, and Denise Joy. The session starts in less than a month. Go, county commissioners, go!

In a practical sense, name recognition is the no.1 hurdle to cross to win an election - which means you win by meeting with people in your community face to face, or you advertise - the latter meaning elections won by money. We've seen first hand that community action *works* to bring big change

A partisan government creating a separate court and appointing judges to rule on constitutional issues is absolutely going to work as intended, right? Right??
