Keep airlines flying in Big Sky Country

All of us who call this state home take pride in its rugged beauty and limitless possibility. Those things are also what draw so many people to Montana each year. The state of Montana has always been a place for opportunity, and transportation has always been directly linked to our ability to thrive. Hospitality is what we do best, and a vibrant transportation sector helps drive our state’s economy and bring millions of tourists to big sky country. However, a looming tax increase currently being considered in our State Legislature threaten to undermine the pro-growth, pro-business environment Montana has worked hard to cultivate. House Bill 661 would dramatically increase taxes on aviation fuel, inflating costs for air carriers and passengers traveling to and from our state. And no one stands to lose more than Montana’s travel and tourism economy and the businesses that support it.
