Governor Greg Gianforte’s Budget Director Kurt Alme spoke with KGVO News late Thursday afternoon to provide an update on the budget numbers for the next biennium.
Alme: "Montanans want to see Helena change the way it does business, and that begins with how Helena spends the hard-earned dollars of its citizens. I’m grateful for the opportunity to join this team, and look forward to getting to work on the Governor-elect’s forthcoming budget."
Violent crime is on the rise, and not just in America's major cities. We've seen the violent rioting and looting spread to the suburbs in places like Kenosha, Wisconsin. Montana is also seeing an increase in violent crime, according to Montana's US Attorney Kurt Alme.
Thanks to the Trump Administration, violent crime in Missoula County dropped for the second year in a row according to numbers released by the US Attorney's office in Montana.
