Gov Greg refuses to tell the truth about where our property taxes go, especially this year's statewide increase.

About 1/2 of MT residential property tax goes into the MT General Fund, to be allocated.

Montanans: To support the Held v Montana youth send public comment to Montana PSC pschelp@mt.gov Include: Regarding docket 2022.11.102 in the subject. Sample letter is in the photos below.

Full opposition to the 20
year Integrated Resource Plan submitted by
Northwestern Energy. Your job is to act in the best
interest of Montana customers.
This plan fails to consider cheaper
renewable energy. It instead
seeks to continue using more expensive fossil
fuels, methane burning plants and wants to add
nuclear power to Montana. Nuclear power
requires a large source of water and the approval
of Montanans.
Montana can lead the
transition to renewable energy. According to Renewable Northwest, " A clean
energy economy could double Montana's
statewide energy jobs by 2030. The median salary for US wind electricity
jobs is $85,000. The report, entitled “Montana Wind
Jobs,” found Montana ranked 48th/50 states for # of jobs in wind energy, despite being 5th in the nation for
land based wind." MT ranks
47th/50 in solar jobs.
Northwestern Energy should be directed to expand
their portfolios in renewable energies. Instead,
this plan fails to even consider the impact of
regulations that limit toxic air pollutants, coal ash
and greenhouse gas pollution from Colstrip and
seeks to increase its share of this antiquated
power plant.

This plan mischaracterizes monies available via 
Inflation Reduction and Build Back Better
Acts.
