This same Gov was seeking nearly 1000 beds a short time ago. Of course he wanted to build a “new prison”. Hello! Your state already has an empty one but it’s in a county that votes (R) which means ???

Building a new pri$on is big buck$ for local developer$, land owner$, and union construction thug$. All of these people contribute heavy $’s to the political party that enabled the new pri$on to be built.
When the new prison$ are built, they big Buck$ for the union$ which provide the guards and other people, probably SEIU to handle things guards don’t do. Then, these union thug$ will contribute heavily to the rats who enabled the prison to be built. They will be paid back with outrageous wages, benefits and early retirement.
So the last thing left wing governors and legislator$ want to do is put a new prison into a conservative area.
Of course the last thing the Montana Progressively Liberal Mediots (PLM) would do is point out that there is a new prison vacant and ready for prisoners.
