PIERRE, S.D. (KELO) — South Dakota Gov. Larry Rhoden says the Legislature's position is unmistakable. "We've received the message that our current prison plan does not have the buy-in this legislative session," Rhoden said Thursday. House Bill 1025 would have originally appropriated money to build a new men's prison in Lincoln County. But the House gutted [...]
PIERRE, S.D. (KELO) -- South Dakota senators weren't able on Friday to pass proposed changes that their Republican leader wants the Legislature make to state laws on eminent domain. So they reconsidered Senate Bill 198 on Monday, and this time -- with an additional amendment -- the measure got through. The proposal from Sen. Jim [...]
PIERRE, S.D. (KELO) -- First, House Bill 1025 was gutted. And now, it's dead.

PIERRE, S.D. (KELO) — Legislation to build a new men's prison in Lincoln County is on its way to the full House of Representatives at the state Capitol, but lawmakers on the Joint Committee on Appropriations (JCA) kept their cards close to their chest about how they feel about House Bill 1025 during their hearing Thursday. [...]
PIERRE, S.D. (KELO) -- Legislation that would require school districts to hold local elections on every proposed excess tax levy and every proposed issuance of capital outlay certificates has cleared the South Dakota Senate.
