Montana Task force recommends targets for $1.25 billion coronavirus stimulus, skirting open meetings law

An advisory council appointed to help Gov. Steve Bullock decide how to spend $1.25 billion in coronavirus relief money from the federal government submitted its formal recommendations Friday, laying out a framework focused on providing additional support to pandemic-disrupted businesses and nonprofits.

“It’s critical, certainly, that this funding reaches all corners of our state, considers really all the sectors of industry and the economy,” Bullock said.
