Montana Senator Steve Daines told a group of land trusts that he was supportive of Land and Water Conservation Fund permanent reauthorization and full funding, and was “doubling down on every possible avenue we have to get this reauthorized before Sept. 30.” The LWCF will expire at the end of September unless it is reauthorized. At an event at Helena’s Spring Meadow Park, Sen. Daines met with MALT members The Nature Conservancy, Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation and Prickly Pear Land Trust, and voiced his continuing commitment to LWCF reauthorization and funding.
