The Painted Rocks area is located in Montana Senate District 30 which is represented by Rick Liable of Victor. We are in Montana House District 59 which is represented by Ron Stoker of Hamilton. From their records, neither of these guys seem to be any  good - click on their names (below) and see each of their records for bills with which they were sponsors or associates - both missed many deadlines for submitting bills (which may actually have been a blessing in disguise). Neither would be mistaken as a friend of the environment.
