This joint resolution from the Montana Legislature requests that the federal government increase the hours of service at customs ports of entry between Montana and Canada. The resolution highlights the negative impact that reduced hours have had on commerce, trade, and cross-border travel, which are vital for business, leisure, and maintaining family connections. It emphasizes the importance of the trading relationship between Montana and Canada, noting that Montana exports $1.2 billion in goods and services to Canada annually, making it the state's largest export market.

The resolution calls for action to enhance trade and facilitate increased cross-border travel, reflecting the collective interests of Montana's citizens. It also mandates that copies of the resolution be sent to the President of the United States and the Montana Congressional Delegation to advocate for this change.
