Use the system on this website, and your message will be printed and delivered to the committee members. You can also send individual messages to specific legislators. No matter what method you use, speak up and tell your legislators to take a stand in support of Convention of States!\\ \\ http://leg.mt.gov/css/Sessions/64th/legwebmessage.asp \\ \\ **Select a Committee:** Senate Judiciary \\ \\ **Select Bill Type:** SJ \\ \\ **Enter Bill#:**  7\\ \\ **Select vote for:** Yes \\ \\  \\ \\ |
