MISSOULA- Some Western Montana parents and children gave praise on Friday to Max Baucus and Jon Tester for helping to keep their children healthy by pushing for clean air.

The parents visited the office of Senators Max Baucus and Jon Tester to thank them for protecting the air and asked them to continue to push for limiting pollutants.

The group says air pollutants are the most dangerous for children, because their immune systems are still developing.

"As a mother, I'm really concerned about clean air for my baby and everybody else's babies so hopefully we raise awareness about that," Stroller Brigade participant Brigita Wohlsein told us..

Parents from across the state are participating in this "stroller brigade" to urge senators to continue fighting for clean.
