Gov. Greg Gianforte said Nov. 13 the biennial budget proposal he will submit to the 2025 Legislature will include the largest tax relief in Montana’s history, while focusing on investments in public safety, education and infrastructure.

Holding a press conference at the state Capitol just a week after being reelected for a second term, Gianforte emphasized that by electing Republicans to all state and federal offices, as well as retaining GOP control in both legislative chambers, Montanans showed they want conservative leadership in the state.

“My proposition was, and remains, simple — to create more good paying jobs, open the doors of greater opportunities for all Montanans to achieve the American dream and to protect the Montana way of life. It’s a conservative vision centered on family, our communities and our way of life,” Gianforte said. “That conservative vision is what has guided our budget that we are previewing today.”
