Legislative policy work is a longstanding Montana Audubon tradition: our first lobbyist was hired in 1979, and we maintain a presence in the legislative trenches every session—we always expect to accomplish a great deal of conservation work between January and May during legislative years.

Past Legislative Sessions

At the end of each legislative session, we publish voting records and bill tables; these have been published since 1983 and describe how legislators voted on Audubon’s primary issues during the Montana Legislature. We are most interested bills affecting general environmental protection, public land, wildlife and wildlife habitat.

These records can be used as an educational tool for you and your legislators. Please take the time to observe where your legislators stand. Talk to them about any concerns you may have regarding their votes, as well as express your appreciation of votes in your favor. Keep the voting record as a tool to use in the future for you and your legislators.

The following Voting Records and Bill Tables are available for download:
