Montana Senators Steve Daines and Jon Tester joined Land and Water Conservation Fund supporters and congressional colleagues in a Nov. 29 event at the US Capitol to rally support for the LWCF. The LWCF expired at the end of September and a primary goal during the current lame duck session is for Congress to permanently reauthorize and permanently and fully fund this essential national conservation program. MALT applauds the efforts of the two Senators and urges them to work toward LWCF reauthorization and funding.
