Misinformation about NorthWestern Energy’s potential interest in acquiring additional power from the Colstrip Power Plant is undermining the opportunity for a productive discussion and misleading the public about the future of this valuable Montana resource. Opponents of coal generation are using Senate Bill 379, legislation intended to facilitate continued operation of the Colstrip Power Plant, to spread a false narrative about Colstrip and NorthWestern Energy. To be clear, NorthWestern Energy would only consider acquiring enough additional cr...
Representative Rosendale and his colleagues introduced the “No Taxpayer Funding for Vaccine Passports Act.” This bill would prohibit any federal funds from being used to implement, enforce, or assist in the establishment of a COVID–19 vaccine passport system.

Gluten-free diets are a necessity for people who have Celiac's Disease, a condition that causes an immune reaction in the small intestine from eating gluten. This reaction causes damage to the small intestines that can lead to pain and other symptoms. Going gluten-free also is a choice for people who experience other reactions to eating gluten products that are not related to Celiac's, or have been instructed to do so on the advice of their nutritionists or doctors. It used to be that...
Following a successful Annual Meeting of the Jefferson Valley Museum, featuring Norm Tebay with a history lesson of the Tebay family, some of the interested people engaged Norm and his son, Cody in conversation. Interwoven with the history were human interest stories of the family’s life in Whitehall from before Whitehall became a city. A variety of photos shown on the big screen at the Star Theater revealed an era of living in the Jefferson Valley. The Tebay ancestry was very instrumental - both financially and with expertise - in the e...

He was transported to Idaho Falls for treatment of severe injuries. He remained in serious condition Friday. FWP staff have not yet been able to talk with the man, who was alone during the bear encounter. The man...
