"The 2023 Legislative session has given rise to a number of housing reforms, many of which focus on getting government barriers out of the way of Montanans' wanting to build affordable starter homes."
"While the progress of all of these bills is an exciting milestone, there is still a lot of work to be done."
"Rather than trying to get ‘just a little more’ from taxpayers, local governments need to follow Montanans’ lead and cut excess spending."
"While many factors are contributing to the housing crisis, one significant factor is one-size-fits-all government mandates which prohibit starter homes or makes them more expensive than they otherwise would be."

"Thanks to Governor Gianforte’s Red Tape Relief Initiative, the Legislature appears to be striking a better balance between preserving Montana’s innate beauty and ensuring all Montanans can thrive."

"Just two years in, the Red Tape Relief Initiative has prompted at least 78 separate legislative proposals from state agencies that we’ve identified which advance the initiative’s mandate, meaning massive Red Tape Relief is on the way for Montanans in 2023."
