the people of South Dakota, not the politicians in Pierre, will be the ones to decide whether to restore Roe v. Wade as the law of South Dakota
This reminds that although abortion rights are the most important result of Roe v Wade, there are other rights that were abrogated when it was overturned. It’s hard to say all that was lost, and those generally won’t be recovered with these efforts.
This was the first and the one thing they united to do everything in their power to ensure passage in 2016.
Everything else following was theater and/or smaller scale quid pro quo. Those actions still have serious consequences, especially for reproductive rights and minorities, but delivering money to the wealthy is the one true gospel.
