Affordability Mailer sent to voters

Voters received a mailer on Affordability in their mailboxes this week!

Representative Debo Powers works hard in the Montana Legislature to make Montana affordable again!  She worked in the 2025 Legislative Session:

–To bring your property taxes down and held 3 public meetings in House District 3 to explain the new property tax laws.  80% of full-time residents saw a decrease in property taxes.

–To extend Medicaid which is affordable healthcare coverage for working families.

–To give local governments more tools for creating affordable housing.

A light supper will be served. 

Debo is one of our two Democratic Legislators from the Flathead.  It is important that we hold onto her seat.  Come out and support Debo’s re-election campaign!  Powers for the People!

Rep Powers worked hard for us in the 2025 Legislative session.  To find out some of the things that she did as a legislator, scroll through the postings below.

If you want Rep Powers to keep representing you, please donate to her re-election campaign by pushing the “Donate” button on this page.

Rep Powers attended the showing of a film called “When the Waters Rise Again” about the 1964 flood in the Flathead and the 2022 flood near Yellowstone.  The event was held at Columbia Falls High School and was sponsored by a high school group called the Conservation Crew along with Climate Smart Glacier Country.  Young people are worried about their futures and effects of climate change.  Climate change is brining not just more wildfires, smoke, and drought, but an increased risk of severe flooding caused by “atmospheric rivers” like the one that hit Yellowstone in 2022.

Because the property tax community meeting in Polebridge was so successful, one was held at the Whitefish Community Center.  State Senator Dave Fern and State Representative Debo Powers presented information about how the new property tax laws passed by the legislature will affect homeowners in Montana.  Rep Powers used a power point developed by the Department of Revenue.

It was a surprise to Rep Powers when she opened her mailbox and found a mailer giving her an A rating based on her votes in the legislature.  The mailer was sent by Montana Conservation Voters who track how legislators vote in the session.
