HB198 is just plain wrong. In a state where private property rights are sacred, many agree that giving the right of eminent domain to private corporations and eliminating the ability for citizens to seek recourse is a slap in the face to Montanans.

Here are a number of individuals and groups who say no to HB198. If you don’t see your favorite group or local legislator on the list, contact them and ask them to support the repeal of HB198.
