Following our exchange during the recent Air Force Budget Posture Hearing before the Senate Defense Appropriations Subcommittee, I am particularly concerned about the timing of this project's planned inclusion in the Air Force's fiscal year 2023 Military Construction (MILCON) plan. At the time of the Great Falls, Montana conversion from F-15 aircraft to C-130 aircraft, the ramp was not adequate, but it was within acceptable Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) standards. Recently modified FAA parameters make the parking situation for the unit's eight C- 130 aircraft on the existing ramp particularly difficult. The Air National Guard (ANG) has expressed the best way to resolve and alleviate this impediment is to construct additional ramp space.

  • 2021 Montana Legislature Begins
    January 9, 2021 2021 Montana Legislature Begins Monday, January 4th, marked the first day of the 67th Montana State Legislature and for the next 90 days our focus will be on state policy and the accompanying political debate. With a little over 3,000 bill requests, many of them considered ‘placeholders’ that may or may not become bill drafts, will command the attention of both legislators and concerned citizens. Monday also marked statewide offices being sworn in. Governor Gianforte spoke on his commitment to growing the states economy, lowering taxes, improving the state’s infrastructure and state spending. Austin Knudsen now serves as the Attorney General, Christi Jacobsen as Secretary of State, Troy Downing as Auditor and Elsie Arntzen is serving her second term as Superintendent of Public Instruction Legislators were sworn in via Zoom and in-person. COVID-19 protocols will look different based on the legislator’s preference and location of hearing. Montana Democrats priorities include protecting Medicaid expansion, support for families due to COVID impacts and funding infrastructure projects. Montana Republicans priorities include budget, gun rights, restrict access to abortion, public lands, private sector healthcare and broader local control for education. Both parties want to work on expanding broadband access and investing in career technical training. The 2021 session also has an eight member, legislative leadership COVID-19 response panel. They will meet on a regular basis as they navigate the session. Remote participation is highly encouraged. Public testimony is a valuable resource for legislators.

  • 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. It reauthorizes several OTO and sunsetting EcoDevo programs at Commerce. As amended, it defunds the Board of Research and Commercialization and repeals the program entirely, and transfers those funds directly to Dept of Agriculture's marketing program, increases funding to Ag's Growth through Agriculture program, and increases Commerce's appropriations for the small business development center, the regional CRDCs, and the MSU manufacturing extension center. As amended, the sunset on the programs is 8 years. The League joined MEDA, Governor's Office, the Department of Commerce, and MACo in support. HB 0411 Revise laws related to AIS expenditures and funding Willis Curdy Chapter Number Assigned Staff Summary: As amended, this bill requires a $10 AIS prevention pass on nonmotorized boats and $30 on motorized boats operating in Montana for funding the state's aquatic invasive species (AIS) prevention program.
