Montana Legislative Branch - How Can I Get the Law Changed?

Changing Montana Law

Citizens are often interested in finding out how they can bring about a change in the law. Requests for bills can only be made by elected legislators, so the first step is to identify your representatives or legislators who may be interested in proposing the change you would like to see.

You can identify your representatives through the legislative directory or the district map. Your legislators will be interested in hearing your ideas.
Information about how a bill moves through the legislative process in Montana is found in a step by step outline called "How a Bill Becomes a Law in the Montana Legislature".

For information on giving input to committee deliberations, see Having Your Say Before Montana Legislative Committees.

And remember that your input is an invaluable part of effective democracy in Montana!
