The Montana State Legislature has updated their website and the means for contacting your representatives. The new page – Participate – gives instructions on how to observe legislative meetings, and how to contact your representatives.
For in person testimony, check the committee hearing calendar at https://www.legmt.gov/ for the time and location of the committee hearings. Make sure to add your information to the signup sheet when you enter the room
For remote testimony, the deadline to sign up to provide remote testimony is 5pm the day before the hearing.
For written comments, the deadline to submit written comments is 5pm the day before the hearing. Stay focused! A reader should be able to recognize you main points from a quick scan of the text. Also, send a copy of your written comments to your representative, so they know what matters to their voters.
