24 February 2015 :
HB 370 to abolish Montana's death penalty has been scuttled by a tie vote (50-50) in the House. The proposed law called for an end to executions. Republican Rep. David Moore, who introduced the bill, had been optimistic it would be passed and would move along to the Montana Senate. But he says the tie vote in the House of Representatives means the bill is dead.(Sources: The Canadian Press, 23/02/2015)
