CiviCon — coming to a school near you!! Lawmakers have shown they don't want students to participate in building the policies for our future. Now, it's our turn to show them that students have a voice, a vote, and things to say! Join us for CiviCon, from April 18th-22nd

Talk Conservation to Me! Join intern, Sylvie, in learning about the Blackfoot Clearwater Stewardship Act. This national bill could be a game-changing law for watersheds, habitat, and access. Sign up here — bit.ly/3NuQv8U #BlackfootClearwater #Conservation

Have you submitted a comment in support of the BCSA? Don't wait! @SenatorTester wants to hear from you (and see your beautiful artwork). mtpirg.org/bcsa #BlackfootClearwaterStewardship #Conservation #PublicLands

Lawmakers are trying to make us jump through hoops to vote. Today's spotlight: HB506. Passed last session, it blocks people from receiving their ballot before they turn 18 — even when they will be 18 on election day! This could make absentee voting near impossible. #VotingRights

Students deserve to vote. Montana legislators think they won't win with young people, so they passed shameless, blatant attacks on student voting with bills like SB 169. You and I can register to show them we can't be kept quiet. mtpirg.org/register #VotingRightsMatter

Students deserve to have their voice heard, just like everyone else. SB 319 was an unconstitutional attempt to make that harder. While parts of the law have been struck down, students need to come back stronger than ever — you can register to vote today mtpirg.org/register

Lawmakers passed HB 176 to eliminate same-day registration and make it harder for students to vote. That's why it is more important than ever to make sure you're registered in advance. You can go to register online at mtpirg.org/register #Students #VotingRights #mtpol #mtleg

Protecting them ensures Montanans can enjoy them in perpetuity. Plus, 8 out of 10 Montanans support this MT-made legislation! Let’s get @senatorjontester’s bill across the finish line today! 📍Smith River /📸Paul Dinkins #mtnews #mtpol #wildandscenic #mtheadwaterslegacyact

Did you know the #mtheadwaterslegacyact protects 376 miles of #wildandscenic rivers, including the Greater Yellowstone ecosystem & the Smith River watershed? These iconic rivers are a crucial part of MT's booming outdoor economy. 📍Smith River /📸Aven Satre Meloy #mtnews #mtpol

@MSUExpo Such a great place!
