  • 2021 Voting Record
    The 2021 Legislative Session Montana's biennial legislative session is always a top MFPE priority because decisions made there profoundly affect members' pocketbooks and professions. The 67th session was unique due to the global COVID-19 pandemic and a single political party controlling both the legislative and executive branches, but MFPE members were undaunted. Nearly 3,000 MFPE members and staff joined the first-ever Rapid Response Team of member-lobbyists. They attended statewide virtual meetings throughout the session and sent tens of thousands of messages to legislators via texts, emails, and phone calls. These efforts were crucial in asserting MFPE's strength and reach. Because MFPE members engaged like never before, we successfully beat back five union-busting bills all directed at undermining the ability of Montana workers to belong to and participate in a union. Our collective efforts also secured several legislative victories including the quick and bipartisan approval of the state and university employee pay plan and funding for public education and services, state agencies, the Montana University System, and Community Colleges. Through the Rapid Response Team, MFPE members successfully advocated for bills to stabilize the Sheriff and Highway Patrol pensions and fought to defeat an assortment of bills that would have destroyed the Teachers’ and Public Employees’ Retirement Systems. MFPE members and staff mobilized to defeat a parade of bad ideas: a private charter school bill; private school vouchers to divert money from public schools to private schools; voter suppression; and bad tax policies that defund public services while giving tax breaks to the ultrawealthy. Despite our best efforts, some bills with harmful consequences for MFPE members became law.

  • SAMLNSS17 Legislative Update 4: 11-14-17
    SAMLNSS17 Legislative Update 4: 11-14-17 Hi SAMLNSS17 Members! The special session started this morning with motions to expand the session and to run the expanded session concurrent with the Governor called session. Late morning, these resolutions passed and the rest of the day was a combination of hearing bills that were added to through the expanded call and floor sessions in the House and Senate to incrementally pass recommended changes to HB 2 and several bills to become part of HB 2. The Joint Senate Finance & Claims/House Appropriations Committee took action this morning reestablish a HB 2 that included changes created after the 2017 session adjourned but impacted state finances. The best example was the added consideration of SB 261 implemented triggers being added into the new HB 2. I believe it was 3 floor sessions in both the House and Senate that resulted in the basic HB 2 now being at the correct current levels so that the bills of the session to solve the revenue shortfall can be considered. The evening and night saw the beginning considerations of executive action on the bills to resolve the revenue shortfall, as well as those bills included because of the expanded call for the special session. The sausage making has been intense but there appears to be a plan to have all of the moving parts culminate in a plan to accomplish the goal of solving the revenue shortfall in the coming days. As I write this (9:00 PM), the House is convened taking action on 2 bills added by the expanded session.

  • Final 2019 Legislative Report
    MONTANA LEAGUE OF CITIES AND TOWNS Tim Burton, Executive Director Kelly A. Lynch, Deputy Director/General Counsel 2019 Montana State Legislature Final Report The 2019 legislative session adjourned on Thursday, April 25, 2019. The League tracked and actively lobbied more than 150 bills that affected Montana municipalities. In last few weeks of the legislative session, there were multiple attempts to raid entitlement share payments and shift other costs to cities and towns that would have resulted in cuts to local general fund revenues. Together with our partners and the help of many local elected officials and municipal staff, we were successful in stopping these pieces of legislation. REVENUE AND FINANCE Tracking Level - Support Passed Bill# Title Sponsor Status HB 0052 Revise funding for various economic development programs Jim Keane Chapter Number Assigned Staff Summary: This is the administration's economic development funding bill.
