Red, Blue, Rich, Poor, Urban, Rural, Right, Left (you get the idea) we generally, universally, agree there is a problem with money in politics. I've heard from folks for years "we need to do something!!". 100% agree!. Let's do this, as Montanans!

"Crypto-related PACs and affiliated groups pulled in over $245 million for the 2024 election cycle ... nearly 300 pro-crypto lawmakers comprise the House and Senate this session, giving the industry unprecedented sway over the legislative agenda" www.cnbc.com/2025/01/30/...

Montana has a long history of citizen's grassroots reform & fierce independence, particularly when it comes to money in politics, corruption, and the citizen's initiative process.

The 2024 election cycle marked a historic milestone in campaign finance, with dark money groups—nonprofits and shell companies that spend on elections without revealing their donors—contributing a record $1.9 billion to federal races.

In fighting the 'Copper Collar', citizen led reforms established a tradition of public activism and helped shape Montana's unique political culture characterized by face-to-face campaigning, questioning party loyalty, skepticism of outside interests, and grassroots activism.

Political advertising is projected to reach $10.8 billion in the 2026 cycle—over 20% higher than 2022 - making this potentially the most expensive midterm in U.S. history. Super PACs spent $2.7 billion at the federal level in 2024 alone, up from $1.4 billion in 2022.

A @BrennanCenter study published in 2025 documented that dark money spending nearly doubled from 2020 to 2024, reaching a record $1.9 billion—and that figure is likely an undercount.
