Letter to House Speaker Pelosi
Montana’s Congressman, Denny Rehberg, joined every other Republican member of the House Appropriations Committee in sending a letter to House Speaker Pelosi and Appropriations Chairman Obey indicating that they would not support the Defense Appropriations bill if it was used as a vehicle to increase the federal debt limit.
Don’t jeopardize Montana’s energy future
Energy. It is the lifeblood of the American economy. For this reason, it is no surprise that energy policy discussions receive a great deal of attention. Done wrong, energy policy can significantly harm the economy. That is a real concern as the U.S. Congress and individual states debate legislation that aims to address climate change and potentially overhaul our country’s energy system.

Letter from the editor
The Big Sky Weekly is proud to be your locally-owned community newspaper. Thank you for supporting your local community paper through your ads and readership.
Did you know that 80 percent of America’s newspapers have a circulation of 15,000 or less?
Did you know that there are about 8,000 community newspapers in America that fit that description?
Did you know that 86 million Americans read those community newspapers every week?
Yet if you read the “the newspaper industry is failing” stories online, in the major daily newspapers and on television, it would d be a good guess that those reporters and bloggers don’t have a clue, don’t care, or can’t be bothered.
