Staying informed on federal actions is more important than ever. The volume of recent Executive Orders and policy changes can be overwhelming, and many have significant implications for our members.

To help you stay up to date, we’ve created this resource center—a collection of key news articles and updates, organized by industry and topic. We remain committed to a bipartisan approach, sharing relevant information that impacts the profession.

We’ll continue to update this page as new developments arise. If you come across valuable guidance or resources we’ve missed, please email us—we welcome your input!

We work with a government affairs consultant so that MTCPA has a strong voice in the legislative process. Our consultant monitors legislative activity, keeps us informed of bills that could affect CPAs, and advocates on behalf of our members to support policies that protect and strengthen the profession. By building relationships with lawmakers and guiding our advocacy efforts, they ensure MTCPA and our members stay proactive in shaping regulatory issues that impact the accounting field in Montana.
