LC 2 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Create indigenous peoples day

This bill establishes Indigenous Peoples' Day as an official legal holiday in Montana, observed on the second Monday in October alongside Columbus Day. The legislation amends state law to add this new holiday to the list of recognized legal holidays and instructs the secretary of state to notify the Montana Supreme Court, local governments, and tribal governments about the change. The bill does not create additional paid time off for employees but formally recognizes the day in state statutes and requests that court rules be updated to reflect the new holiday status.
