Montana Constitution Forum a resounding success!
January 21, 2023
Mae Nan Ellingson delivers a fascinating presentation on the history and highlights of our State Constitution. The enthusiastic crowd at the Bedford Building was standing-room only, packed by young and old Republicans, Democrats, and Independents, and gave Mae Nan a resounding standing ovation. Thank you Ravalli County!
Mae Nan, being the youngest delegate to help form our Constitution and current chair of the non-partisan Friends of the Constitution, offered a priceless look into the roots of our Constitution, universally acclaimed as the best in the nation.Β Her humor, grace, and knowledge made this a fantastic presentation.Β "Montanaβs 1972 Constitution is not a Republican or a Democratic document β it is a βWe The People β document β that means all of us.Β The values expressed in the Preamble β quality of life, equality of opportunity and liberty β are timeless, Montana values."
We Need You!
We are the party of the people.

Thank you Ravalli County for the standing-room only attendance by young and old Republicans, Democrats, and Independents. Mae Nan received a well-deserved enthusiastic standing ovation for her engaging, informative presentation about the roots of our Montana State Constitution, universally acclaimed as the best in the nation. Especially interesting to the younger crowd was her attention to how the existing right to "A clean and healthy environment" is under threat (the basis for the current lawsuit by youth against the State - read more at https://www.ourchildrenstrust.org/montana).
