As Montana's oldest and largest grassroots agriculture organization, we want to help our members and members of our communities become comfortable with the legislative progress and advocating for themselves. This training will be focused on teaching how the state and federal legislature operates, demonstrating aspects on the Montana legislature website, and giving tools for different avenues to make their voice heard. We also will be sharing updates from the previous session on bills we have worked on and share our policy priorities for 2026.
