Funding secured for Montana Meth Project
| June 29, 2007 |  View for printing |
A $500,000 grant for the Montana Meth Project has been included in the 2008 Commerce, Justice and Science Appropriations Bill that awaits passage in the U.S. Senate.
Montana Sens. Max Baucus and Jon Tester asked that the funds be included in the bill, which has cleared the Senate Appropriations Committee.
Billionaire and part-time Montana resident Tom Siebel founded the Meth Project in September 2005 and has contributed more than $15 million to the effort. He recently challenged state and federal officials to help fund the program. The Montana Legislature recently approved a $1 million grant for the project requested by Montana Attorney General Mike McGrath.
