The state of Montana accuses Himes and a friend, Jeb Bryant, of running an imaginary company called Duratherm Building Systems, and getting at least one investor to fork over $150,000.
Himes ran unsuccessfully for a school board in Montana and is well-known for campaigning against Missoula's anti-discrimination ordinance. He said it would allow transgender people to go into public bathrooms of either sex.
