"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

As Billings officials craft a proposed non-discrimination ordinance in the coming weeks, an existing ordinance they’ll turn to for ideas is Missoula’s, which the city council passed in 2010.

"After four years, give or take, of having the ordinance on the books, there are a whole bunch of folks in Missoula who feel fully enfranchised, safe and comfortable in their community," Missoula Mayor John Engen said. "There have not been any challenges I am aware of, and we’ve gone back to research that."
