Meet
Laura
Hi there. I’m Laura Smith. I’m a mother of two wonderful girls and am married to Mac, a Helena attorney and business owner. I have served as a leader in Montana as the Deputy Director of the state health department, and as a federal prosecutor, bringing justice to victims of murder, sexual assault, violent crime, and fraud.
I’m running to represent HD 79 because as a parent I care deeply about the Montana we leave for our kids and grandkids. I’ve got the legal experience, passion, and understanding of the issues that will ensure our district has a seat at the table.

VALUES
“As a mother of two, I’m passionate about leading meaningful improvements for our community—advocating for affordable housing, healthcare and childcare, protecting our rights under the Montana Constitution, ensuring well-funded public education, standing up for public lands & water, and championing government accountability.”
