How we’re making a difference in Montana
Montana Moms Respond to Covid-19
As we cope with the Covid-19 response in Montana, Moms Clean Air Force is holding all events virtually. Keeping our families safe is our top priority.
Hope will not be cancelled. We are stronger together, and a better future for our children keeps us motivated. All staff are working from home. We are meeting with each other and our lawmakers virtually, and we are exploring ways to best support Montana communities, especially those for which Covid-19 is an extreme hardship.
But as the science shows that breathing polluted air can worsen the impacts of Covid-19, the EPA continues to push forward a dangerous, racist agenda that weakens lifesaving pollution regulations. Join Moms Clean Air Force in demanding that EPA do its job and protect the health of our children and communities.
Moms Clean Air Force empowers Montanans to act on wildfire smoke, public health, and equity.
On June 24, 2020, Montana field organizer Melissa Nootz gave an important presentation on the public health impacts of wildfire smoke. She focused on the family and community levels and the role of equity in building community resilience for an APHA Center for Climate, Health, and Equity webinar titled “After the Smoke Clears: How Wildfires Impact Our Health.” at the family and community levels and the role of equity in building community resilience for an APHA Center for Climate, Health, and Equity webinar titled “After the Smoke Clears: How Wildfires Impact Our Health.”
During her talk, Melissa shared stories from communities around Montana from the particularly dangerous and unprecedented wildfire season of 2017. Prolonged wildfire smoke exposure is a serious public health threat leading to asthma attacks, heart attack, stroke, low birth weight, and other health problems, and privilege is a major factor in whether families and communities can follow recommendations for managing or preventing smoke exposure, like buying HEPA filters, upgrading HVAC systems, or evacuating to a hotel outside the wildfire danger zone.
Melissa acknowledged that impacted communities know their own equitable solutions. She concluded,
“If the institutions suggesting the prescriptions for healthy communities only view equity and solutions from seats of privilege, we’ll continue to miss critical and life-saving opportunities…. Let’s radically shift the lens of how we view equity and stop centering the dominant white culture as we look for solutions—or recommit yourself if you’re already doing this important work.”

Montana Moms join members of Moms Clean Air Force across the country to demand stronger protections against deadly soot.
In May 2020, Moms Clean Air Force Montana joined more than 65 Moms Clean Air Force staff and volunteers from 18 states and DC to deliver testimony at the EPA’s virtual public hearing on PM 2.5, or deadly soot. In April 2020, Trump’s EPA proposed to retain the current standards for particle pollution, ignoring science and putting thousands of lives at risk. Even in the midst of a national public health emergency from COVID-19, moms participated in the public hearing in record numbers. It’s one of many ways Moms Clean Air Force Montana is continuing to engage in serious and consequential advocacy and outreach during the coronavirus pandemic.
Montana organizers Melissa Nootz and Michelle Uberuaga offered testimony, as did three Moms Clean Air Force members from around the state.
Members of Moms Clean Air Force help Helena transition to 100% clean electricity.
On February 24, 2020, the Helena City Commission unanimously passed a resolution to put Helena on a path to 100% clean, renewable electricity by 2030. Helena Moms Clean Air Force members played a critical role in helping this resolution pass. In the months leading up to the resolution vote, Helena moms and a strong coalition of partners met with City Commission members, showed up at public hearings, and wrote letters in support of the resolution– making it loud and clear that Montana m
oms want meaningful action on climate.
“The City Commission has demonstrated true leadership and a commitment to preserving the health of our community, our economy, and our Montana way of life. Cities are filling the void in climate action in the absence of state or federal leadership. Helena, Missoula, and other communities are ready for clean air and water, lower electricity bills, and a local clean energy economy — and this movement is showing no signs of slowing.”
–Melissa Hornbein, Helena Moms Clean Air Force Supermom
Montana moms and youth are uniting across the state for climate action.
During the Global Climate Strike on September 20, 2019, Montana moms and kids showed up to demand a safer climate in four cities across the state– Bozeman, Livingston, Helena, and Missoula.
Shining a light on one of the largest Superfund sites in the United States.
In September of 2018, Moms Clean Air Force met with newly-promoted Acting EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler in Anaconda, Montana. Anaconda is one of the largest Superfund sites in the country and has been on the EPA Superfund National Priority list for more than thirty years, but action has been slow. Montana moms pressured Senator Daines (R), EPA staff, and county commissioners to allow them to participate in a small “stakeholder” meeting about the cleanup.
Following the meeting, Regional EPA Administrator Benvenento spent six hours touring contaminated sites in Anaconda with Montana organizer, Melissa Nootz, and Anaconda moms.
Montana moms are serious about protecting our lands — and we showed it by fighting for the safety of over 30,000 acres of public land.
On March 18, 2019, Senator Jon Tester joined the community on the northern border of Yellowstone National Park at Chico Hot Springs to celebrate the passage of landmark legislation, the Yellowstone Gateway Protection Act.
Senator Tester introduced the Yellowstone Gateway Protection Act in April 2017, and worked tirelessly with the community to pass the bill in February 2019 as part of the historic Public Lands Package. The legislation prohibits hard rock mining on 30,370 acres of public lands in two mining districts on the border of Yellowstone National Park. Montana organizer, Michelle Uberuaga, was instrumental in building local support for the initiative and delivered remarks to the community alongside Senator Tester.
In her remarks, Michelle said:
“We succeed here because we recognize the power of working together at the most local level. We set aside personal politics, we take the time to earn respect and trust, we sit down and we listen to one another, we lift each other up, and we stand together on issues that may not be our own. And we show up. This is the definition of a community.”
Helping Montana moms run for office.
In May 2019, Moms Clean Air Force Montana hosted the second annual Mom Power Summit with 30 participants from around the state for a three-day training. The topics included women in conservation, civic engagement, and running for office.
Testimonials:
“I took more away from these women than I could have ever imagined, and the past few days have found my mind consumed with thoughts about justice, privilege, identity, purpose and community… I am in awe of every single woman who accepted your invitation and made the choice to co-create such a profound environment… Ever learning, ever expanding, ever forward. Let’s fly.”
–Shannon Stober-Barrett
“I was present to everyone and felt seen and heard by all. Even though this was my experience- and our shared experience, I deeply believe that this kind of recognition and connection is happening with other groups of moms and women everywhere. I walked away feeling hopeful. After all, we have super powers!”
–Lei-Anna Bertelsen
“What happens when you get a group of powerhouse women together to collaborate, share new ideas, grow, and empower one another? Positive action for the world. Thank you to an incredible group of strong women who came together to teach important lessons on diversity in leadership, creating innovative new systems, empowerment, and supporting one another. Whether your area of focus is housing, social justice, environment, climate, education, or health, it is all interconnected and we must use the strength of our community near and far to build a holistic, thriving future.”
–Lara Tomov
“I am incredibly grateful for this powerful group of women that shared their weekend, wisdom and superpowers over Memorial Day weekend. No one said it would be easy changing the world, breaking down injustice and fighting for the things we love, but we agreed to take turns post-holing and to work together to build community. That’s how I want to live. Feeling hope. Feeling powerful.”
–Michelle Uberuaga
After the 2018 Summit, six of the participants have been elected to local boards or offices in four cities across the state. Here is what they have gone on to do:
- Three women have joined planning boards in their communities (Great Falls, Anaconda and Bozeman).
- One is a new City Commissioner (Livingston).
- One was appointed by the Governor to the Montana State Parks and Recreation Board.
- One was named Chairwoman of the City Commission (Livingston).
In 2020, we will work to train another 30 climate champions to run for office in Montana.
Listen to the 2018 Montana Public Radio story about the event.
Fighting for the cleanup of Montana’s Superfund sites.
With over 300 square miles of contaminated land, Anaconda is one of the largest Superfund sites in the country and has been on the Superfund National Priority List since 1983 due to heavy metal contamination of air, along with water and soil.
Former resident and Montana Clean Air Mom, Melissa Nootz, hosted a tour for EPA Regional Administrator Benevento of the contaminated public spaces in the city with impacted residents in October 2018. Since the tour, the long-time confidentiality gag order preventing disclosure of the cleanup was lifted, a big step forward in the cleanup process.
Our public land and natural areas are precious.
With over 30 million acres of public land — roughly one third of the state — there is no shortage of wilderness to explore in Montana. Montana is home to both Glacier and Yellowstone National Parks, which attract visitors from across the United States and internationally. Montana moms care deeply about maintaining their public lands, which means fighting for policies that decrease fire risks and fighting against proposed mining near or around these sites.
Our children are growing up with more frequent and more intense wildfires — and more dangerous air pollution.
Wildfires are not a new part of life in Montana. Seasonal burn bans and “Smokey Bear” fire danger alerts help inform decisions Montana residents make to prevent fires. But the fires in Montana are getting worse — and more dangerous.
As heat continues to rise in the state and rains become more unpredictable, Montana, like many states, is at risk due to the impacts of climate change. 2017 was the worst fire season in Montana since 1910 for total acres burned — with over 1.4 million acres consumed by fires across the state. This heavy burn season coincided with what the National Drought Mitigation Center deemed an “exceptional drought.”
These fires not only pose danger to Montana families, communities, and beloved public land, but expose Montana residents to unsafe air. During the 2017 burn season, many Montana children breathed “very unhealthy” air.
We rely too heavily on coal.
Montana is a major coal-producing state.
The Powder River Basin, a region between Wyoming and Montana, produces over 40% of coal in the United States.
The Montana coal industry is intertwined with our state’s economy and transports coal across the entire Pacific Northwest region, further contributing to local and regional air pollution.
