The GOP-controlled State House of Representatives failed to overturn Gov. Kristi Noem’s transgender sports veto. So she got out her pen and wrote an E.O. for what she wanted.
Update: Immediately following the failure of the South Dakota House to override Gov. Kristi Noem’s veto of a transgender student-athlete ban, the governor released two executive orders which will put in place the changes she asked Republican lawmakers to make.
“Given the legislature’s failure to accept my proposed revisions to HB 1217, I am immediately signing two executive orders to address this issue: one to protect fairness in K-12 athletics, and another to do so in college athletics,” Noem said in a news release early Monday evening.
