PIERRE — District 24 Representative Will Mortenson didn’t volunteer to serve on any of this year’s interim Committees, but that doesn’t mean he’s not looking ahead some to the 2022 legislative session. Mortenson says he’d like to improve voter turnout in local elections…
Mortenson also wants to address concerns over civics and history, possibly starting in Pierre at the Cultural Heritage Center…
While Mortenson isn’t on any summer study committee, he stays in weekly contact with the other members of District 24…
Mortenson says he’s gotten many questions about the low voter turnout issue and the implementation of medicinal marijuana, which becomes legal in South Dakota in less than three weeks.
