Property taxes: 1) @mtgop Sen. Molnar joins @mtdems to call for special #mtleg session to fix residential property tax hikes. 2) Dems and Rs can fix property tax hike crisis in a day, w/one short bill. 3) That's it. @GovGianforte should veto anything else. #mtpol #mtnews

But today press was not allowed to take notes from the public area of the room. Credentials not needed for this space, it's for the public that comes to speak on bills. Lobbyists, etc, are on laptops all the time in this space. Regier said no laptops today was specific to press.

It appears more than 100 people are in the House gallery for today’s floor session, following the rally protesting the decision not to let Rep. @ZoAndBehold speak on the floor. Speaker @RepMattRegier called for those in attendance not to cheer or boo. #MTNews #MTLeg #MTPol
