Amid heavy criticism six days after leaving the country without telling his constituents, Montana Gov. Greg Gianforte's office confirmed that he had gone to Italy with his wife.
His office said he was briefed regularly about intense flooding that devastated the northern part of Yellowstone National Park and nearby communities.Democratic U.S. Sen. Jon Tester said Friday that when you're in public service, there are things that take precedent, and this week's disaster is pretty important. But a Carbon County commissioner said he was able to contact Gianforte by phone and that the state did not neglect any duties.
Officials said that although all five park entrances are closed temporarily, they are targeting to possibly reopen the west, south, and east entrances.
