I am very surprised that there was even a bill for Medical Marijuana,,,and it does not surprise me that it was totally ignored in this backward state,,,LOL Thxs Rep. Gerald Lange D-Madison for at least submitting it ;) SOUTH DAKOTA MEDICINAL POT MEASURE KILLED

Patients might prefer pot to popping pills, but they won't be doing
that legally in South Dakota.

The House Health and Human Services Committee deferred a bill that
would have legalized the medicinal use of marijuana to the 41st day
of the legislative session, effectively killing it.

Rep. Gerald Lange, D-Madison, introduced the bill, which lacked any
co-sponsors. Lange said that he introduced the bill at the request
of one of his constituents who is suffering from a debilitating
disease.
