Max Helping To Set Aside 300,000 Acres For Hunting And Fishing
by Max For Montana
Montana Senator Max Baucus is helping broker an agreement that could potentially designate 300,000 acres of prime hunting and fishing land in western Montana for conservation.
On Friday, Baucus joined representatives from Plum Creek, the Trust for Public Land, and the Nature Conservancy on the Blackfoot River to announce that the groups were committed to pursue a plan that could designate the land, which would be the largest land conservation project in American history.
As chairman of the powerful U.S. Senate Finance Committee, Max included a Forest Conservation Bonding provision in recent legislation which would provide $250 million for land conservation programs.
"We are grateful for how hard Senator Baucus worked to create this new funding mechanism which will help us expand our forest conservation efforts in Montana," said Eric Love, The Trust for Public Land's Northern Rockies Director. "This isn't just about saving land; it's about preserving a way of life."

A Heroic Tale
by Max For Montana
Montana has a long, proud tradition of protecting America's freedom in the Armed Services. And this proud legacy added yet another chapter, when Eivind Forseth enlisted in the United States Army. After the tragic attacks of 9/11, Eivind answered when his nation called. Putting his own safety aside, Eivind fought bravely in Iraq, where he was tragically wounded.

Max Baucus knows that all soldiers, like Eivind, deserve to have their government work as hard for them, as they did for it. That's why Max is working hard on his Defenders of Freedom Tax Relief Act. Max's bill would provide soldiers with the benefits that they need and deserve including help saving for retirement or building a home, and providing support for families of those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice.

Max at the Native American Center Groundbreaking
by Max For Montana
Because Max is so proud of Montana’s deep Native American history he couldn’t be more excited for the new Indian Studies Center at the University of Montana. Max has high hopes the new major, Native American Studies, will continue to bridge the gap between Native Americans and non-Native Americans, so we can learn from all Montanans. This new form of higher education is keeping Montana on track for a better, brighter future.

Thirty Years Of Serving The Big Sky State
by Max For Montana
Since 1978, Max has been a strong voice for Montanans in the U.S. Senate. Following in the footsteps of his mentor, Mike Mansfield, Max rolled up his sleeves, used common sense, and his Montana values to become one of the most powerful men in Washington. Yet, over the course of four decades, one thing has remained the same: Max will always do what’s right for Montana.

Getting Seniors and Vets The Rebates They Deserve
by Max Baucus
Every time I get to come home, it’s so great to see all the exciting things that are happening around the state, and to meet with a lot of different folks. Over the last two weeks, I travelled across the state holding free tax clinics with seniors and disabled veterans to help make sure they got the economic stimulus rebate checks they deserve.
When the Congress and the President were drafting the economic stimulus package, they forgot to include nearly 20 million seniors and 250,000 veterans. As chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, I put the brakes on that real quick, because it’s not right that these citizens who supported our economy for years, or who were wounded serving our country, should be left out.
