Far too many Montanans are struggling with mental health issues, and expanded access to services is critical to our rural communities and our veterans.

That’s why, earlier this year, I introduced a slate of bipartisan bills that will support Montana’s mental health workforce and boost substance use disorder services, ensuring that Montanans across the state have greater access to care.

Montana native Vincent Marsh, who aspires to join the mental health workforce, reached out to me to share his own struggle with depression and express his support for the package.

We must ensure our health care workforce has the resources and tools they need to serve Montanans in every corner of our state.

I won’t stop fighting to get these bipartisan bills signed into law.

Sincerely,

Senator Steve Daines
