We have received reports of a new COVID-19 vaccine email scam where people are asked to complete a survey. They offer a free reward but ask people to pay a nominal fee “to cover shipping”. Survey scams like this are a creative way to steal your identity or money. Many survey scams offer a reward and give you a limited time to respond if you want to take the survey. A legitimate survey would not assign a time limit, nor would they ask for your credit card or bank account to pay for a reward. Scammers know people have received vaccines and are...

Greetings from Helena! We started the 2nd half of the Legislative session on Monday, March 8. After doing a marathon day with almost 100 floor bills on March 1 it was nice to be back on a regular schedule. There is a lot of concern in the legislature and from our constituents about how judges legislate from the bench. However, the thinking of judges and lawyers and liberals is that judges are nonpartisan and unbiased. So, this is the root of some of the debate that has been around the legislature and evident in Judiciary committee this week...
