The South Dakota ballot box will determine the future for South Dakota in many ways. One of them is in the form of Referred Law 21, or RL21.
I wish I could sit down with each of you to explain every step that has led to RL21 being on the ballot. I could visit with you for hours, but I only have a few paragraphs to try and explain this. However, it IS very important for you to understand. It IS very important to South Dakota. It IS very important to FREEDOM. So here we go.
