    May 29, 2024

    Opinion Editorial by Geraldine Custer, Gary Buchanan and Marc Racicot The 118th Congress began on Jan. 3, 2023, and will end on January 3, 2025.

    Ted Nordhagen|May 29, 2024

    To The Editor: As a fourth generation Montanan, I feel privileged to have grown up in one of the many farming and ranching communities dotting the landscape of eastern Montana.

Sense of community was strong, a man’s word was his bond, neighbors helped neighbors, and Sunday mornings found most folks gathered in church. As a WW2 veteran, my father was proud of his service to his country and understood that the freedoms we each enjoy were purchased a...
