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.

  • From the Desk of Jim Brown, Public Affairs Week One of The
    From the desk of Jim Brown, Public Affairs Week one of the Legislature is in the books and there have been some developments. To wit: 1. The Governor made nominations for the positions of head of FWP and Department of Agriculture; a) For FWP, the Governor nominated University of Montana law professor Martha Williams. Based on Williams’ long environmental record, she is not going to be friendly to landowners, and may be the worst director yet for our interests. b) For Dept. of AG, the Governor nominated Ben Thomas, a former U.S. Department of Agriculture employee and a former Baucus staffer. The other ag groups seem to think he will be an adequate director. The story is linked here: http://missoulian.com/news/government-and-politics/gov-bullock-announces-more-cabinet- appointments/article_887184c3-a107-5f12-a800-a36831ba6498.html 2. MWGA’s livestock loss bill is up for hearing this coming week. As you will recall, in the 2013 legislative session, MWGA secured general fund monies to fund the livestock loss board. Prior to our efforts, the livestock loss board was struggling financially, relying primarily on grants to carry out its mission. However, the authorization for the funding expires as of June 30, 2017. It’s hard to believe that four years have passed, and it is time for MWGA to work to renew this important source of funding. But, that is where we are. Our bill, SB 73, will be heard in the Senate Agriculture Committee on Thursday at 3:00PM. I am optimistic that it will make it through the Legislature; whether it makes it across the Governor’s desk is another matter.

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.

  • 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, the sunset on the programs is 8 years. The League joined MEDA, Governor's Office, the Department of Commerce, and MACo in support.
