Jennifer Fielder is the current Vice President of the Montana Public Service Commission (PSC) and since being seated in 2021 has been instrumental in transforming the once beleaguered agency into a model of good governance. In addition to handling a wide range of highly complex regulatory cases which have resulted in millions of dollars in savings to Montana utility customers, she has spearheaded the agency's strategic planning initiatives, software modernization project, and overhauled its internal policies and procedures -- all of which have created higher standards of service, performance, and conduct throughout the agency.
Prior to joining the PSC, Fielder was a popular, award-winning Montana State Senator and nationally recognized advocate for Liberty. Her current work on the Commission and 8 years as a lawmaker complement more than two decades of professional planning, design, and project management experience involving the types of industries regulated by the PSC -- including railways, pipelines, electric generation, telecommunications, water works, solid waste disposal, and federal energy regulatory proceedings. Jennifer's diligent work ethic, real-word experience, and genuine connection to the people of western Montana have equipped her perfectly to meet the challenging demands of the Montana Public Service Commission.
When it comes to the companies regulated by the PSC, Fielder is refreshingly independent. She does not accept campaign contributions from any individual, business, or special interest group with an issue likely to come before the PSC, doesn't take secret meetings with officials of the companies she is responsible for regulating, nor is she involved with any of the special interest groups seeking to influence PSC actions. First as a citizen legislator, and now as a Public Service Commissioner, Jennifer maintains a solid reputation as one of the rare elected officials who doesn't make backroom deals, doesn't trade votes, and doesn't do things just to get re-elected. She has never been afraid to go against the grain of the political establishment, stand firm in the face of public pressure, or dig deep to bring the true facts to light.
Jennifer is a giver - not a taker. The first time she ran for public office in 2012 she pledged half of her legislative salary to charitable causes, and she made good on it. She has a true servant's heart and is a fearless defender of freedom. As a liberty-leaning legislator, Senator Fielder earned an "A" rating for steadfast defense of the 2nd Amendment; received the prestigious "Keeper of the 10th" award for outstanding defense of the rights of the States and the People; and won the 2019 Legislative Appreciation Award from one of Montana's largest sportsmen's organizations for protecting the right to hunt, fish, and trap. An avid outdoors woman in her own right, Jennifer cares about our environment, values clean air and water, and has volunteered thousands of hours to improve access on public lands.
