This joint resolution from the Montana Legislature urges the United States Congress to fully fund public safety and law enforcement agencies, programs, services, and activities within Montana's Indian reservations. It highlights the ongoing issues of drug and alcohol abuse, violent crime, and the high rates of victimization among Native Americans in these areas, emphasizing the need for adequate federal funding to address these challenges. The resolution calls for the U.S. Department of Justice to collaborate with the Department of the Interior and engage in consultations with Indian tribes to effectively allocate resources for tribal justice systems.

Additionally, the resolution invites tribal governments in Montana to adopt their own resolutions urging Congress for similar support and requests that these resolutions, along with a letter from Governor Gianforte, be submitted to Congress by June 30, 2025. The Secretary of State is tasked with collecting these communications and forwarding them as a package to relevant congressional leaders and tribal governments. This initiative aims to ensure that the unique public safety needs of Montana's Indian reservations are recognized and adequately funded.
