SB70’s Day In The Senate

Posted by: admin In: Legislature| SB 70

SB70 saw its final day as a bill in the South Dakota legislature today, on Thursday, Feb. 18.

Senator Jerstad introduced a new amendment relating to use of reflective clothing and bicycle. The purpose of the new amendment would address a concern with an inappropriate penalty. This move failed by voice vote. The original amendment then failed by voice vote.

Finally, the senate rejected the original bill itself with a 10 to 24 vote.
