Public service isn’t about comfort—it’s about impact.

As Leo Rosten reminds us, life is about being useful, responsible, and making a difference.

That’s what public office should be: showing up with integrity, making fair decisions, and serving others in a way that truly matters.

🌄 Spring Break Travel Reminder for Montana Roads 🚗☀️
Heading out for spring break? Whether you're chasing sunshine or hitting the mountains, make sure you’ve got the 3 must-haves to stay legal on Montana roadways:

✅ Valid Driver’s License
✅ Vehicle Insurance
✅ Current Vehicle Registration

Before you hit the road, take a minute to download or screenshot your current digital insurance card 📱
That way, if you're involved in an accident or get pulled over, you’ll have it ready—no digging or delays.

🚨 Quick tip: Cell service can be spotty in parts of Montana, so having it saved offline can save you a headache.

Safe travels, Montana! Enjoy the break and drive responsibly. 🛣️

Don't be fooled!! Courts nor MVD will send a text about fines. Always called the source directly to confirm, before you give out your information!

SCAM ALERT: The Montana Department of Justice’s Office of Consumer Protection (OCP) and the Montana Motor Vehicle Division (MVD) is warning Montanans of fraudulent text messages from scammers claiming to be from the Montana Department of Motor Vehicles and asking the recipients to pay fines or traffic tickets. MVD does not send texts asking for money for unpaid tickets or toll road fees. Additionally, Montana does not have a Department of Motor Vehicles, it is called the Motor Vehicle Division.

Stay vigilant and report any phone, email, or text scams to OCP at [email protected], or 406-444-4500 (toll-free: 800-481-6896), or online at https://dojmt.gov/office-of-consumer-protection/

⚖️ Freedom isn’t free — sometimes it looks like a jury chair. ⚖️

Got that pink jury summons in the mail and wondering “Do I really have to go?” — short answer: yes… unless you’re legally excused.

📜 Under the Montana Code Annotated (§ 3-15-301), all qualified citizens who are:
✅ 18 or older
✅ U.S. citizens
✅ Residents of Montana (and your local city/county) for 30+ days
…have a legal obligation to serve on a jury when summoned — it’s part of being a citizen in our great state! 🇺🇲

🤔 Sure, serving might feel like an inconvenience at first, but here’s the twist:
• It’s your voice in action — real people deciding real cases.
• You get a peek behind the courtroom curtain.
• And honest service = civic pride

💼 Employers: Montana law even helps clarify fees and leave for employees called to duty.

So next time you see that jury summons in your mailbox remember....No cape required… just show up and serve. 😉
