Repeal constituent services account

SB 131 would repeal a provision (Section 13-37-403, MCA) that established a "constituent services account" allowing Montana legislators to set aside state funds for direct services to residents. The bill specifically removes the legal authority for this account, which previously permitted legislators to use allocated funds for constituent assistance and donate leftover money to charities. This repeal would directly affect legislators who utilized this account for constituent services, eliminating the specific funding mechanism. The bill contained no new funding or policy changes beyond removing this existing provision.
