Powers for the People

Powers for the People Representative Debo Powers represents Montana House District 3. My father served in the military and my family moved around quite a bit when I was young.

She brings experience as a public school teacher and principal, conservation advocate, and community leader to the Montana House of Representatives. Unfortunately, I did not win the “birth lottery” and have the privilege to be born in Montana; however, I fell in love with Montana when I first saw it at 10 years old. Starting in 1979, I came to Montana year after year to soak in the beauty of the m

ountains, the rivers, and the wildlife. Eventually, I built a solar-powered cabin next to the North Fork of the Flathead River and realized my dream of living here full-time. I have a passion for Montana and it was a great honor to serve in the Montana Legislature and use my talents and skills in the service of Montana and its citizens. I want to thank the voters of HD 3 for sending me back to the Legislature in 2024.

Country music pours out into the streets from the ajar door of the Whitefish Community Center as the last bit of evening light slips away. Friends and strangers alike lock their hands.

Time for an electric car? War in Iran is showing one important reason to move away from fossil fuels.

We now have cost-competitive alternatives to fossil fuels. What we don’t seem to have is a sense that we’re all in this together.
