Senate Bill No. [insert bill number] proposes revisions to the membership composition of the Board of Housing in Montana. The bill mandates that the board, which consists of seven members appointed by the governor, must include at least one enrolled member of a federally recognized tribe in Montana and at least one veteran of the United States armed forces. This change aims to enhance the representation of diverse perspectives within the board, which is responsible for overseeing housing programs in the state.

Additionally, the bill includes a provision requiring the Secretary of State to notify each federally recognized tribal government in Montana about the enactment of this legislation. This notification is intended to ensure that tribal governments are informed of the changes and can engage with the Board of Housing as necessary. The bill amends Section 2-15-1814 of the Montana Code Annotated to incorporate these new membership requirements while maintaining the existing structure and functions of the board.
