Legislative Candidate Survey – House Districts 1 – 22

Legislative Candidate Survey Responses, House Districts 1 – 22

To prepare for the 2025 legislative session, Grow Montana Food Policy Coalition invited the 2024 Montana Legislative Candidates to take part in a survey to share their views on important food and agriculture issues. The survey was sent electronically to all candidates who provided an email address in their legislative filings with the Montana Secretary of State. Seventy-eight legislative candidates provided answers to the survey.

A secondary purpose of the survey was to introduce candidates to Grow Montana’s priority areas and share a few resources for learning more about the issues the coalition works on.

Candidates were informed the results of this survey will be made available to coalition members and the public. Candidates were also informed their responses will be used solely for educational and informative purposes and will not be used as a scorecard or endorsement of individual candidates.

If you are unsure who your legislative candidate is, you can find out by entering your voting address in the search feature at the Montana Free Press’s Election Guide. If you would like assistance reaching out to your candidates, email the coalition using our Contact Form.

The full survey is available to read HERE.

How to read the responses: Candidate responses are available in the tabs section below. Click on a candidate’s name to bring up to see the questions answered, and then click each question to expand or collapse the answers. Candidates that did not complete the survey are listed at the bottom of each page.

Do you think Montana should expand processing of Montana-grown food for our citizens?

Yes

In order to expand in-state processing of locally grown and raised food for residents, other states have created workforce training programs in food processing and expanded grant opportunities for small and mid-scale processors. Please select any of the following measures you think Montana should explore.

Create a state-funded grant program for building and expanding processing capacity for Montana-grown and raised foods.

Develop a workforce training program for butchers and meat cutters in partnership with the Montana Department of Agriculture.

Increase funding and capacity for food safety education and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HAACP) training through MSU course offerings.

Do you support the Country of Origin of Labeling (COOL) requirements for beef and pork, knowing that this is a requirement for other foods, including chicken and lamb?

Yes

Are you supportive of allocating funds within the state budget to help Montana school authorities access locally sourced and processed foods?

Yes

What suggestions do you have for supporting schools in offering higher-quality school meals?

Create a state-funded grant program to support schools in purchasing Montana grown foods.

Provide state-funded partial reimbursement for schools’ purchases of Montana grown food.

Increase funding for wages for school nutrition staff to increase capacity for cooking high-quality meals.

As described above, Montana currently has successful agriculturally focused educational programs that involve students and community members to learn more about where their food comes from and the farmers who produce it. Would you like to see these programs, or something similar, increased to more school districts?

Yes

There are five basic practices that can support approaches to fostering the long-term productivity and sustainability of soil in Montana’s agricultural lands. Are you familiar with any of these practices? Check all that apply:

Maximize Presence of Living Roots: Encourage continuous plant growth by having living roots in the soil as much as possible. This enhances soil structure and nutrient cycling.

Minimize Disturbance: Avoid excessive tilling or other practices that disrupt the soil. Minimizing disturbance helps maintain soil structure and prevents erosion.

Maximize Soil Cover: Keep the soil covered with vegetation, crop residues, or cover crops. Soil cover protects against erosion, conserves moisture, and supports microbial activity.

Maximize Biodiversity: Diverse plant species and beneficial organisms contribute to a healthy soil ecosystem. Biodiversity improves nutrient cycling and resilience.

Integrate Livestock: Grazing animals can enhance soil health by cycling nutrients, breaking up compacted soil, and promoting plant diversity.

Programs like the ones described above help Montanans access fresh, nutritious, locally grown products as a way to reduce healthcare costs. Please check the boxes of the programs you support/would like to expand:

Is there anything else you would like to share with Grow Montana Food Policy Coalition?

I am deeply concerned by the impacts of warming, extreme weather, and drought on our agricultural sector. We are already late to act.

Do you think Montana should expand processing of Montana-grown food for our citizens?

Yes.

I support the removal of incentives and/or governmental regulatory obstacles to community-based programs created, funded, and run by the local citizenry. I do not believe the State nor the Federal governments can continue to operate is if they have bottomless pockets, for I believe that leads to irresponsible use of the citizen’s tax dollars.

Do you support the Country of Origin of Labeling (COOL) requirements for beef and pork, knowing that this is a requirement for other foods, including chicken and lamb?

Yes.

Are you supportive of allocating funds within the state budget to help Montana school authorities access locally sourced and processed foods?

What suggestions do you have for supporting schools in offering higher-quality school meals?

I support removal of administrative and regulatory obstacles; not in creating yet more and more State-run, tax-funded programs. At some point, we will run out of “other people’s money.”

Only if it can be done at no additional cost to the Montana taxpayer.

Is there anything else you would like to share with Grow Montana Food Policy Coalition?

I support Montana agriculture. I support removing legislative, regulatory, and judicial impediments that burden our agricultural industries. I do not support a “more programs” approach to governance in any industry. If we do not clear away the spider-web of overlapping laws, programs, and regulations heaped upon our industries time and time again, we will weigh down the producers to such an extent our own government will destroy their ability to thrive. We need less government; less “programs”; and less of the government’s greedy hand involved in our agriculture and our businesses.
