HELENA — If elected governor, Republican Ken Miller said he would fight to keep roads open for multiple use on state lands.
Speaking to snowmobilers in Cut Bank Saturday night, Miller said one of the first things he would do as governor would be to issue an executive order requiring that no further roads on state public lands would be closed without a review by the governor's office.
‘‘Montanans continue to be closed out of more and more access to our public lands,'' Miller said. ‘‘My family has experienced repeatedly blocked roads that we've used to hunt, fish and generally enjoy the
outdoors.''
When he asks who made the decision to close the road and why, Miller said he's told that ‘‘they'' made the decision, without
elaboration.
‘‘There seems to be no single face to those that make these decisions,'' Miller said
