Human trafficking cases in Montana are on the rise. In 2022 Montana’s Department of Justice human trafficking investigators saw a 300% increase in cases over the prior year. Even more staggeringly, they’ve seen an 871% increase since 2015. Human trafficking is a form of modern-day slavery, with unwilling victims who are coerced into slavery - and this cannot stand! This is why, with the support of MT DOJ, I introduced HB 112 during the 2023 legislative session to revise MT law in a way that provides more tools for prosecutors, while also pro...
I was saddened last month when I heard the news of the passing of Bob Barker. Growing up, he was always a fixture on the television during the summer months when I was home alone and had complete control of the television. This was back in the day when you had to get up and walk to the TV, so you had to make wise decisions for viewing because scrolling through channels wasn’t a thing unless you could convince a sibling to sit right in front of the screen. A staple in the summer months, “The Price is Right” was also a fixture on sick days.... Full story

When faced with disappointments, it’s easy to become disheartened and question our worth and abilities. However, it’s important to remember that disappointments are n...

Federal rules codifying which waterways are afforded Clean Water Act protections under the “Waters of the United States,” or WOTUS, rule have been changed once more, continuing a back-and-forth regulatory saga shaped by presidential administration changes and court rulings going back at least a decade. The federal agency that administers the Clean Water Act, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, announced Tuesday that it amended its WOTUS definition to comply with the Sackett v. EPA decision the U.S. Supreme Court issued in May. The law...
