Dakota Rural Action Endorses Amendment A and Measure 26!
“Recently the Dakota Rural Action Board of Directors voted to support Amendment A and Initiated Measure 26. IM-26 is a comprehensive cannabis medical access initiative. Amendment A is an adult-use cannabis state constitutional amendment.
In addition, Amendment A mandates the Legislature pass laws regulating the cultivation, processing and sale of hemp. This is needed as South Dakota’s regulations regarding the cultivation and transportation of hemp remain restrictive and confusing. Requiring the SD Legislature to fully address this issue in an environment where cannabis is legal would be an important step forward.
Amendment A would also guarantee the SD Legislature can’t change or repeal Initiated Measure 26, a very important point given how, in 2017 the Legislature ignored public outcry and repealed IM-22, the South Dakota Anti-Corruption Act, in 2017. Following the successful passage of the measure on the 2016 ballot.”
