This bill amends Section 2-18-503 of the Montana Code Annotated to allow legislators, jurors, witnesses, county agents, and all other persons using their own motor vehicles for official duties to collect mileage at a rate equal to the mileage allotment set by the United States Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for the current year. The bill removes the previous stipulation that mileage reimbursement was limited to the first 1,000 miles at a specific rate, thereby simplifying the reimbursement process for these individuals.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that members of the legislature, jurors, witnesses, county agents, and all other persons, except state officers or employees, are entitled to this mileage reimbursement when using their own vehicles. The legislation aims to streamline the reimbursement process and ensure that those performing official duties are fairly compensated for their travel expenses. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
