HELENA, Mont. – Governor Greg Gianforte today praised President Donald J. Trump’s nomination of Bill Mercer to serve as a U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Montana.

“President Trump has made a strong decision in nominating Bill Mercer to serve as a District Court Judge for the District of Montana. With Bill’s distinguished legal career and his life-long commitment to public service, I’m proud to support his nomination. Given his experience in the Montana House of Representatives, I have faith that Bill will serve Montana well and apply the Constitution as our Founders intended.
