Montana joint legislative rules for remote participation, bill drafting, fiscal notes, and legislative procedures.

The joint rules of the Montana Senate and House of Representatives establish procedures for remote participation in legislative sessions, bill drafting requests, fiscal notes, and legislative processes.
