U.S. SENATE – U.S. Senator Steve Daines introduced the “Modern Firearms Safety Act,” which would prohibit states from enforcing unconstitutional handgun rosters. These rosters mandate that firearms include costly and unnecessary features like microstamping, loaded chamber indicators and magazine disconnect mechanisms.

Calls Nominee Out of Step with Montana Values U.S. SENATE – U.S. Senator Steve Daines today issued the following statement after voting against President Biden’s judicial nominee Anthony Johnstone to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. “The Ninth Circuit has substantial influence over Montana and our way of life. It is critical that Montana’s lone seat on this court is held by someone that better reflects Montana values, not someone who will be a rubber stamp for President Biden’s far-left agenda. Mr. Johnstone’s record proves that rather than upholding the rule of law and protecting Montana values, he
