Tim Fox: Attorney General Should Defend The Rule Of Law

Montanans will be voting for attorney general in the fall. Our Capitol Reporter Corin Cates-Carney recently sat down with the Republican and Democratic candidates for attorney general. In this interview, incumbent Republican Tim Fox talks about why he's running for re-election and what his priorities are if he's elected to a second term in office.

In the interview, Fox says he's proud of his record on public safety — from working to combat human trafficking, to cracking down on DUIs, to creating the sexual assault evidence task force.

"We hope to save lives," Fox said. "We hope to make the lives of Montanans and the visitors here much better over time. And I'll need at least another 4 years to do that." Listen to the interview to learn more.

Hear from Democratic candidate for Attorney General Larry Jent here.
 

Corin Cates-Carney was the Montana Public Radio news director from early 2020 to mid 2025 after spending more than five years living and reporting across Western and Central Montana.
