Jon Tester, D-Mont. On such a day you'd think Montana's junior senator would be talking about global warming, but no, he was talking about an equally hot subject, Wilderness, as he officially announced the introduction of his Montana Jobs and Recreation Act (S. 1470). Since then, I've written extensively about it, and now with the first congressional hearing coming up on Dec. 17, I'm trying to decide if this bizarre, piecemeal approach to protecting roadless lands has more upside than downside and if I should support it.
