Montana GOP drops from platform that homosexual acts are illegal Jun 20th 2012, 14:10 The Montana Republican Party has ended its effort to make homosexual acts illegal. The state party made the decision during a convention last weekend. The issue had been part of the state GOP platform since the Montana Supreme Court struck down similar state laws in 1997. Bowen Greenwood, the state party's executive director, said the decision was part of a larger effort to streamline the group's 31-page platform. However, delegates at the convention made clear the state party still does not support gay marriage. The party's platform, which covers issues from medical marijuana to prison reform, previously read: "We support the clear will of the people of Montana expressed by legislation to keep homosexual acts illegal." The Associated Press contributed to this report.
