Montana Referendum 35 Referendum Aims to Speed Highway Funding
The upcoming May 5 special election will decide referendum measure No. 35 to match federal highway funds with state money.

The measure seeks to expand the federal state highway system, create thousands of jobs, and shift county roads into state control without new taxes. Voters urged to vote yes to support tourism, employment, and road improvements.
