Every Montana politician promises to stand up for public lands, clean air, and clean water. It’s in the state constitution! We looked for candidates willing to speak out on climate change, wildfires, floods, and a just transition to renewable energy, and found a few: 3 in the state senate, 15 in the state house. Monica Tranel in the new MT-01 (Western Montana) seat is excellent, as is John Repke running for Public Service Commissioner in District 5. Although Montana’s Republican-led legislature passed significant voting restrictions in 2021 (struck down by a judge in September 2022), Montana candidates seem fairly blase about voting rights.
