Important Voter Information
🚨Election Protection starts NOW
We believe that our democracy is worth protecting, and for it to survive, our elections must be free, fair, and secure. Montana elections live up to all of these standards, no matter what MAGA propaganda says.
Our team wrote an op-ed that was published in the Bozeman Daily Chronicle today titled “Gallatin Elections Are Free and Fair, so Long as Feds Don’t Interfere.” Please take a look and share it with your community.
We’re inviting you to join us in keeping Gallatin County elections free, fair, and secure. Here’s how you can:
1.
Sign up for our Election Protection Watch emails so you get local election news, calls to action, and opportunities to volunteer.
2.
Join our virtual Election Protection Briefing on Thursday, September 10 at 5:30 pm. Learn about the current state of election protection in Gallatin County, what Indivisible Bozeman is doing, and what volunteer jobs we are recruiting for.
3.
Sign up to be a County Election Judge or temporary administrative clerk for elections – they need the help!
4.
Volunteer for 1) Poll Observing on Election Day (4 hr. shifts); 2) Line Support on Election Day (4 hr. shifts); Voter Protection Hotline the week prior and on Election Day (3 hr. shifts). Please use this form to sign up. Please indicate that you were referred by Indivisible Bozeman.
5.
Tell your friends and everyone in your network to do the same.
 We’ll be working together to make sure that every eligible voter can cast a ballot without intimidation, elections are administered securely and according to the law, and the results are accepted and trusted. We hope you join us.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Bozeman Steering Committee & Election Protection Committee
Healthcare Reimagined
Exploring a Healthier Future
Reimagining Healthcare
If you missed Bozeman Rising’s conversation about Reimagining Healthcare on May 14th, you can still catch the commentary and informational slides from Dr. Dave King and Cristina Mont-Kraus on YouTube! It is packed with information about our healthcare system and digs down into the causes of the system’s shortcomings.
Fix It: Healthcare at the Tipping Point
This 60 minute documentary takes an in-depth look into how our dysfunctional US healthcare system is damaging our economy, suffocating our businesses, discouraging physicians and negatively impacting the nation’s health, while maintaining un-affordable healthcare costs for a third of our citizens. This film proposes intelligent and fiscally responsible ideas for healthcare reform like Universal healthcare, Single Payer healthcare and other solutions for controlling healthcare costs.
Medicaid in Montana - 2026
The 2026 Medicaid in Montana report provides key statistics and describes the impact of Montana Medicaid on health outcomes, the health care system, and the economy. The report also shows how Medicaid Expansion is changing how Montanans with low incomes use the healthcare system, lowering costs, and sustaining rural health care services that communities depend on.
Additional information related to the report is available here.
Medicare for All - Household Savings Calculator
Medicare for All could save over 60,000 lives and billions of dollars per year by completely removing premiums, deductibles, copays, and surprise medical bills while fully covering medical care, dental, vision, long term care, medications, and more.
Find out how much you would save under Medicare for All!
Financing a Single Payer National Health Program
When asked how America will pay for a single-payer healthcare system, Physicians for a National Health Program (PNHP) states that “We’re already spending enough on health care. We’re just not getting our money’s worth.“
The $4.5 trillion spent in the U.S. on healthcare in 2022 was “more than enough to finance all medically necessary care for every U.S. resident while totally eliminating out-of-pocket spending.”
“Bottom line: a single-payer national health program is not only affordable, it’s the only affordable option.”
Stand Up & Wave!
July 4, 2026
 We had an terrific turnout and community response for donations for families that have been
impacted by the brutal ICE raids in our community!
With very little lead time, we had over 300 protesters join the Stand Up & Wave team
PLUS a massive amount of food donations.
(What you see in the photos doesn’t come close to representing the volume of food donated.)
But hey, our country’s 250 birthday is a GREAT DAY TO PROTEST!
THANK YOU BOZEMAN!
