Legislative Sessions

It's up to Montanans to safeguard Montana's clean air and water for all to enjoy and share. Part of this work involves holding our elected officials accountable to protecting the ecosystems in the state we all call home. We need to make our priorities loud and clear, as well as to organize to prevent backsliding. The Montana Chapter offers many ways for you to get involved in the 2025 legislative session. Please check out the options below!
