Since being elected in 2020 to the Montana Public Service Commission (PSC), Jennifer has effectively worked with fellow Commissioners and staff to execute numerous regulatory cases that improved service quality, expanded consumer choice, and saved Montanans more than $35 million dollars.
Fielder also led the vital strategic planning, technology modernization, and internal policy reforms that improved public access and resulted in higher standards of conduct, order, and performance throughout the agency.
In 2023, Fielder was unanimously elected by fellow Commissioners as the Commission Vice President and later that year the PSC received its best fiscal audit in a decade. Plus, for 3 straight years now, the PSC earned 100% perfect scores on all of its federal PHMSA audits.
Over the past 4 years, Fielder's leadership has been instrumental in transforming the once beleaguered agency into a high-performing model of good governance that saves Montanans money and optimizes essential public services.
Prior to joining the Commission, Fielder was a popular, award-winning Montana State Senator and nationally recognized advocate for Liberty. Her 4 years on the Commission (2020-24) and 8 years as a lawmaker (2012-2020) follow 20 years of professional planning, design, and project management that involved the types of industries regulated by the PSC -- including railways, pipelines, power plants, telecommunications, water works, solid waste management, and federal energy regulatory proceedings.

Jennifer has spent countless hours working to improve access, health, and productivity on public lands.
In both private business and public service, Jennifer has earned a solid reputation for being fair and respectful.
