What's Happening in the 69th Montana Legislature?

The OLLI at MSU March Friday Forum will feature a virtual presentation on Montana's citizen legislature, offering an overview of its structure, processes and updates on high-profile bills currently under consideration, providing valuable context on key legislative decisions. Attendees will gain insight into the procedures of the Montana Legislature and learn how to engage in the policymaking process through public comment, testimony at committee hearings, and other forms of participation.

The featured speaker, JP Pomnichowski, brings extensive experience in Montana state government. She has served two terms as a state senator, three terms in the Montana House of Representatives, and as Senate minority whip. Pomnichowski will share her firsthand knowledge of legislative operations and discuss significant issues shaping the current session.
