New website, new problems, and how to get engaged

Host Shaylee Ragar discusses tech issues at the Capitol with reporters Austin Amestoy and Zeke Lloyd. They break down what that means for how the public and reporters alike can follow and engage with the action in Helena, along with the bigger picture of public comment during committee meetings and a new development on legislative junque files. 

Shaylee covers state government and politics for Montana Public Radio. Please share tips, questions and concerns at 406-539-1677 or <a label="shaylee.ragar@mso.umt.edu" class="rte2-style-brightspot-core-link-LinkRichTextElement" href="mailto:shaylee.ragar@mso.umt.edu">shaylee.ragar@mso.umt.edu</a>.  
Austin graduated from the University of Montana’s journalism program in May 2022. He came to MTPR as an evening newscast intern that summer, and jumped at the chance to join full-time as the station’s morning voice in Fall 2022.
