"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

Congress finalized a measure Wednesday to prevent the unofficial Montana slogan, "The Last Best Place," from being trademarked for a year.

The provision, written by Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., will stop the federal government from spending any money in fiscal year 2008 to process trademark applications using the phrase. Congress on Wednesday finished a comprehensive spending bill containing the measure, and President Bush is expected to sign the bill.
