Lobbyist directory
MSAE strives to provide nonpartisan resources to all associations in Montana. In that light, we create and maintain the Montana Legislative Lobbyist Directory (see below). Solicitation for inclusion in the 2025 directory will begin in Fall of 2024. Additionally, a good resource for Montana bills and law updates can be found on Montana Free Press’ Capitol Tracker.
