PIERRE, (KCCR) — The South Dakota House of Representatives has voted to support and sustain two vetoes issued by Governor Larry Rhoden. Rhoden vetoed House Bill 1077, a measure that would consider a cultivated protein food product to be an adulterated food. The bill’s sponsor, Representative Julie Auch asked the House to override Rhoden’s rejection of the measure…
Vetoes need a two-thirds majority to be overridden. The veto was sustained on a 32-all vote. House Bill 1138 was also vetoed by Rhoden. That bill would have required the licensure of non-medical home care agencies. Sponsor Melissa Heerman says the industry backs the measure…
Representative Brandei Schafebauer supported the veto…
The veto of H-B 1138 was sustained on a 36-27 margin. The Legislature also adopted a conference committee report on a bill to fund repairs to the Richmond Lake Dam, which Rhoden signed into law Monday afternoon.
