 South Dakota’s Anti-Cannabis Governor, Republican Kristi Noem, has made it clear she is not a fan of cannabis.
She was successfully able to block a voter approved legalization initiative a couple years ago, but this year, voters will have a second chance to try to get the will of the people passed. Cannabis leglaization Measure 27 will be on this November’s ballot. And as that vote gets closer, groups opposing marijuana legalization are lobbying hard. Last week a group called Protecting South Dakota Kids presented a slew of negative results they claimed would happen if cannabis is legalized. Some of those reasons included things such as an increase in teen use, dangers for children, and negative effects on the brain. Matthew Schweich, who is the campaign manager for Measure 27, spoke to American News and pointed out that most of their arguments against legalization are emotional and anecdotal.
