Federal Dysfunction. Local Fallout.
Over the past two years, we have seen widespread cuts, delays, and disruptions to federal programs that support Montana communities.
These cuts are harming Montana’s nonprofit ecosystem and causing gaps in services for Montanans. They range across sectors, including programs such as invasive species work, affordable housing, service dogs for veterans, and local theaters.
What’s lost is more than a program here or there. When the government doesn’t follow through on its promises, Montanans are losing jobs and communities are losing the networks of services that keep citizens healthy and downtowns thriving.
MNA is working to collect stories of the impacts and elevate the issue to our elected officials.
