SB 224, which would establish Indigenous Peoples’ Day as a legal holiday in Montana, has passed out of committee to the Senate floor. This bill, brought by Montana Conservation Voters-endorsed Senator Shane Morigeau, is a step toward recognizing and honoring Indigenous peoples in Montana by making Indigenous Peoples' Day a legal holiday. It’s a chance to reflect on the history, resilience, and contributions of Indigenous communities while promoting education and unity. This holiday would affirm Indigenous rights and provide a platform to celebrate and learn about their cultures.
