Two questions for our Helena legislators

Here is a simple letter to the editor to all our Republican folks in Helena. Being that I am bird-dogging various bills being introduced and floating between the House and Senate, two questions come to mind.

Where is the “bill” so discussion can start on how we all were taken advantage of with this very unequitable property tax re-evaluation, and needs to be addressed urgently. Our east siders laughed at the increase we are all now having to pay with our “construction boom” and the resultant property values skyrocketing, and they need to work together to solve it.

My other pet peeve, if for nothing else as a show of mounting concern, is a bill between both political parties directed to our U.S. Forest Service to manage our forests so that they just do not burn down, allowing for potential job creation.  Just my wishes..
