MSU BILLINGS NEWS SERVICES — Billings area residents have a chance to talk directly to legislators this week without leaving town.

It is the first in a series of wired meetings that the Yellowstone delegation will hold with residents during the 2009 Montana Legislature and coordinated by area legislators, Montana State University Billings, the city of Billings and Yellowstone County.

 

The meeting will be held Tuesday, Jan. 13, 2009 at noon at the MSU Billings Downtown Campus, 214 N. Broadway. The session is free and open to the public.

 

The meeting will be carried through a Met-Net link between Helena and Billings. Legislators from the Yellowstone River valley and nearby counties will be linked in Helena to the MSU Billings Downtown Campus. Legislators will be available to answer questions and give insights into the session.
