Well, we are on Day 45 of the Montana Legislative Session and the people of Helena are busy. If you are interested in what's happening in Helena, and what may or may not affect you, I would suggest going here for an overview.
Here are some new laws that I thought might interest my readers: 
​
  1. HB 102: This one is a big one for Montana Gun Owners. The purpose of the bill is : " to enhance the safety of people by expanding their legal ability to provide for their own defense by reducing or eliminating government-mandated places where only criminals are armed and where citizens are prevented from exercising their fundamental right to defend themselves and others."  In summary, this one changes were concealed carry permit holders are allowed to carry, changes the game with Universities prohibiting possession of firearms on campus, the carrying of a concealed weapon without a permit, and drawing a weapon when a person feels threatened. If you own a gun and live in Montana, you're going to want to read this one. It can be found here.
  2. HB 108: Montana Hunters will want to review this one, and some of the other hunting laws that are in the works. This one relates to trespassing on private land for hunting purposes. Gone are the days of trespassers carrying around wads of cash to pay their trespass fine and keep on causing problems. This new law allows for repeat trespassers (second offense or more) to face a suspension of hunting/fishing privileges. And remember, losing your hunting/fishing privileges in one state means you lose them in 48 states. This one can be found here. 
  3. SB 61: This is a fun one. Montana now offers FREE FISHING on Mother's Day! Father's Day has been a Free Fishing Day for a while, but this one lets the Moms have fun too. 

There are many other laws in the works that might interest you. I would suggest doing a search for topics of interest so you can see what's happening. If you have questions about what is coming, please feel free to send a message or comment and I will provide updates as they are available. 

Stay informed, educate yourself, and keep up to date. These things matter to all of us in one way or another. 

- Jill
