Native Americans make up 6.7 percent of #Montana’s population, but 26 percent of Montana's missing persons reports. This week's profile is 34-year-old Freda Knows Gun, who has been missing since October 18, 2016. #MMIW buff.ly/2TFOZYA

Columbia Falls Fan and NFR BULL RIDER, Beau Hill carry this awful sign vs Browning Indians. He had a lot of Native fans, me included, but I’m not now. I’ll be cheering for the Bulls when he rides! #NativeTwitter

We are committed to continuing to report on the issue in a meaningful, contextual way that doesn't treat these disappearances as isolated, separate stories, but rather as part of a larger, more complex trend. buff.ly/2tAa9Zs

Why do people list off identities when they're caught being wrong? "Well as a woman, a queer person, a dreamer, and a mother." Notice how none of those are "sorry for saying something racist"?

This continent used to have a whole bunch of prisonless societies. Flawless? Of course not. Functioning? Thriving even. It requires fundamental differences in cultural norms though.

A report last week said that the proposed restrictions and increased premiums could result in 43,000 Montanans losing their health coverage. That’s more than the population of Butte! #LiftTheSunset #MedicaidMatters #KeepMTHealthy #1in10

We are happy to be a co-sponsor of LGBTQ Lobby Day in Montana. Join us Thursday for a full day of advocacy and community building to ensure that all Montanans can live, work, and play in Montana free from discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.

Today, members of the Indian Caucus delivered a powerful letter rebuking Rep. Greg DeVries’ unacceptable rhetoric on the House floor. “For Native Americans, genocide is our lived experience.” #mtleg #mtpol
