LGBT rights in Montana
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) persons in the U.S. state of Montana face some legal challenges not experienced by non-LGBT residents. Same-sex sexual activity is legal in Montana. Same-sex couples and families headed by same-sex couples are not eligible for all of the protections available to opposite-sex married couples.
==Same-sex sexual activity==
Montana revised its criminal code in 1973 and retained its anti-sodomy statute. An attempt to repeal the state's sodomy law failed in 1991. The Montana Supreme Court held in Gryczan v. State (1997) that the state law prohibiting same-gender sexual contact between consenting adults was unconstitutional.〔Jason Pierceson, ''Courts, Liberalism, and Rights: Gay Law and Politics in the United States and Canada'' (Temple University Press, 2005), 83-5, (available online ), accessed April 14, 2011〕
An attempt to repeal the statute failed in 2011.〔''Billings Gazette'': (Charles S. Johnson, "Montana House refuses to blast gay sex ban bill out of committee," March 29, 2011 ), accessed April 14, 2011〕
On February 20, 2013, the Montana State Senate passed a bill, by a vote of 38 to 11 vote, that repealed part of the deviate sexual conduct statute dealing with consenting adults. On April 10, 2013, the Montana House of Representatives passed the bill by a vote of 64 to 35 votes. On April 18, 2013, Governor Steve Bullock signed legislation decriminalizing sodomy.
