Silencing 11,000 Montanans

The GOP wants to silence dissent in our State Legislature. Earlier this week, the Republican-led Montana State Legislature voted to silence Representative Zooey Zephyr after she spoke out against a bill that would ban gender-affirming care for minors across the state. Now, …

In 2022, Ryan Zinke barely won his election after being embattled by potential fraud and legal troubles, not to mention his anti-abortion stance. In 2022, Ryan Zinke barely won his election after being embattled by potential fraud and legal troubles, not to mention his anti…
