PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — Lawmakers in South Dakota wore black attire in a playful tradition of mourning the bills that didn’t survive this year. Lawmakers have just nine days of meetings left this year to determine what will become law in South Dakota. As the Legislature enters crunch time, some bills have fallen by the wayside, while other proposals are still on the table, including Native American schools, limiting probation for people with felonies, legalizing industrial hemp, banning faculty unions, an overhaul to county zoning decisions, and so-called riot boosting.
