The bill proposes amendments to the appointment or election process of committee representatives for political parties in Montana. Specifically, it establishes that an individual may not be appointed or elected to serve as a committee representative for more than one political party during the same 2-year term. This change aims to ensure that committee representatives maintain a clear affiliation with a single political party throughout their term, promoting integrity and consistency within party representation.
Additionally, the bill includes a saving clause, which states that the act does not affect any rights and duties that matured, penalties incurred, or proceedings that began before the effective date of the act. This provision ensures that any existing legal matters or obligations remain intact despite the new regulations being introduced. Overall, the bill seeks to clarify and regulate the political party representation process in Montana.
