How this page stays honest
No access barrier of any kind was found at dphhs.mt.gov — every direct curl attempt with a standard browser User-Agent returned a clean HTTP 200, and no Wayback Machine or reader-proxy fallback was needed. The Montana Legislature's mca.legmt.gov site required following two chained 301 redirects (leg.mt.gov -> archive.legmt.gov -> mca.legmt.gov) to reach the current Food Stamp Program statute index (Title 53, Chapter 2, Part 9), which this pack followed successfully; no drug-felony-specific state statute was found there (only 53-2-901 rulemaking authority, 53-2-902 definitions, 53-2-903 E&T, 53-2-904 income/resource exclusions for FAIM participants), consistent with Montana's drug-felony disqualification being implemented through DPHHS administrative rule/policy manual rather than a standalone opt-out statute. fns.usda.gov's Restaurant Meals Program page timed out on direct WebFetch (60s); this pack fell back to WebSearch corroboration for the 9-state RMP list and flags this explicitly as a WebSearch-only source in freshness.json rather than silently treating it as independently fetched.
