Use Promo Code Randy for 20% off OutdoorClass

Montana House Bill 676 - This could sell off 1.25M acres of State Trust Lands - that's almost 25%!!! This is not the Homesteading Bill

Sent letters to local papers and to Senator. Made calls to media outlets. Call your outdoor editor at your local paper..show a spotlight on this!
And by the way, there are state sections within short distance of where I live that could be considered "isolated," but are easy to get to. And are any "isolated" sections adjacent to or checkerboarded with BLM land? Corner crossing anyone? As Charlie Russell's character Rawhide Rawlins put it in Trails Plowed Under..." I ain't no land hog. All I want is what's next to mine."

HB 676 has been assigned to Senate Judiciary. Bills are being scheduled pretty fast. It could be up this week at the earliest.

Start sending texts and calls to the committee members. Be polite and courteous, but ask them to please vote no on HB 676.

 
Sent comment to the committee. I have contacted some media outlets (Gazette, Montana Free Press, KTVQ). If members can make a few calls to media across the state, it can help, especially TV and daily newspapers. Contact the outdoor editor. This needs to be exposed. Politicians in Montana (even in GOP) are sensitive to public land issues for hunters/fishermen and all who like to get outside. A little pressure is necessary. I wrote letters to the editors in Red Lodge and Columbus, but they don't carry much weight. Even Steve Daines before the legislature last week was touting public lands in public hands. Time to be a squeaky wheel.
 
If its an issue of $$ for education from state lands, I for one will be happy to pay $10 or more for a conservation tag to use state lands. Just don't sell/give them away. This was slipped in behind closed doors to benefit a few.
