Barry Usher, a Montana politician, recently used his social media platform to highlight events and legislative history related to immigration policy and conservative values.
On May 4, 2026, Usher posted a reminder about an upcoming event in Roundup: “REMINDER: Tonight’s ‘Truth Tour’ stop is Roundup 4:30-6:30pm”.
Later that day, he addressed past legislative efforts concerning sanctuary cities. In a post dated May 4, 2026, Usher stated: ‘”The Rest of the Story” HB147 (2019 session) “Banning Sanctuary Cities” We were told by the Attorney Generals Office, that this bill could not be implemented or enforced. Another bill was created & passed, is now in law and is the law the current Attorney General is using’.
On May 5, 2026, Usher shared another message emphasizing key themes often associated with conservative politics: ‘”Faith, Family, Freedom”‘.
Usher’s comments regarding sanctuary city legislation refer to prior efforts in Montana to prohibit such jurisdictions. The initial proposal from the 2019 legislative session faced legal concerns over its enforceability from the Attorney General’s Office at the time. Subsequently, revised legislation was passed and currently forms the basis for enforcement under state law.
