Helena, MT – In response to House Republicans’ decision to ban Rep. Zooey Zephyr from the House floor for the remainder of the legislative session, Montana Democratic Party Executive Director Sheila Hogan released the following statement. 

“House Republicans have brought shame to Montana. Speaker Regier has a choice right now: he can either be a leader and get the House back in order to do the work they've been sent to Helena to do, or he can continue to silence 11,000 Montanans and the legislator they elected to represent them. In the meantime, Montana Democrats are ready to do their jobs of serving the state and protecting every Montanan’s constitutional rights.”
