Jonathan Windy Boy (born August 28, 1958) is a Democratic Party former member of the Montana Legislature. As of 2017 he serves as Representative for District 32. He was elected in 2008 representing Senate District 16.


In 2002 he was elected to the Montana House of Representatives, representing House District 32. He has been a member of the Tribal Council of the Chippewa Cree Tribe since 1999. He was elected Chippewa Cree Tribe Vice-Chairman from 2008-2010. He comes from Box Elder, Montana, is married, with one daughter, one son, and two grandchildren. He is known as a traditional dancer, and has worked in oil field exploration, and as a drug and alcohol prevention speaker.[1]


In 2011, he opposed changing Montana law to revoke the drivers license of any teenager caught in possession of alcohol, but agreed that any teenager with a DUI should be banned from holding a driver's license until age 18.[2]


In 2012, he endorsed a Republican candidate, Sandy Welch, for State Superintendent of Education.[3]


In 2013, he introduced Montana Senate bill 342, which allocates $2 million for a Montana Indian Language Preservation Pilot Program, which will "provide funding to Montana’s eight tribes to develop materials to keep their languages alive for future generations."[4][5]



Campaign Finance


The Monsanto Citizenship Fund from Monsanto attempted to donate to the campaign via Windy Boy for Senate, but he did not cash the check.[6]
