Busy week in Pierre as South Dakota lawmakers will hold two special sessions. The first Monday to consider new legislative district maps, the second, Tuesday to consider possible impeachment proceedings against Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg.
House Majority Leader Kent Peterson of Salem says the actual impeachment session may not last long….
Peterson says once the select committee is approved, the session may recess for days or weeks….
Peterson says they don’t want the impeachment process to spill over into the regular 2022 session….
The rules provide for the House to bring charges of impeachment. If that happens, then the Senate has to wait twenty days before holding the trial.
