CULBERTSON, Mont. – During a three-day swing through eastern Montana on his 56 County Tour, Governor Greg Gianforte visited Roosevelt Memorial Nursing Home to meet with residents and local 4-H students.

“The best part of Montana is Montanans,” Gov. Gianforte said. “Together, we’ll continue to build a stronger future for our state for Montanans from Culbertson to Corvallis.”

Together with residents at the nursing home, Gov. Gianforte received a presentation from 4-H students on their livestock projects. Serving nearly 25,000 Montana kids in all 56 counties each year, Montana 4-H is the largest out-of-school youth development program in the state. In December, the governor donated a quarter of his salary to the Montana 4-H Foundation.

“The residents of Roosevelt Memorial Nursing Home and I agree — these 4-H’ers are ready for the fair in August,” the governor said.

In his Budget for Montana Families, Gov. Gianforte prioritized funding to long-term care and assisted living facilities, proposing and securing the largest-ever Medicaid provider reimbursement rate increase to support facilities like Roosevelt Memorial Nursing Home.
