South Dakota Moves to Impeach Attorney General

“The South Dakota Legislature for the first time in state history has begun the process of considering the impeachment of a duly elected public official,” the Sioux Falls Argus Leader reports.

Associated Press: “A sizable majority of the Republican-dominated House voted to have a committee prepare a report and recommend whether Attorney General Jason Ravnsborg should be impeached. It could take weeks for the committee of seven Republicans and two Democrats to delve into the crash investigation. The committee is a mix of Ravnsborg’s political allies and those who have called for his ouster.”
