Accountability in action

Broadview residents asked for a voice. Kassi Solberg kept asking why they didn’t have one.

Kassi Solberg turned a local fight for answers in Broadview into a statewide demand for transparent government and a meaningful public voice.

Our mission

Public power must answer to the public.

Montana Citizens is building a statewide home for people who expect honest, transparent, and responsive government. We preserve source documents, follow decisions over time, and make it harder for public officials to evade the people they serve.

Our current work begins with the proposed Broadview data center, where questions about public process, infrastructure, and citizen consent illustrate a larger principle: consequential government decisions require disclosure, scrutiny, and a meaningful public voice.

02

Track

Show what officials said, what government did, what changed, and what still needs an answer.

Organize

Give Montanans the information, tools, and coordination to demand action together.
