Governor Noem Launches Website for Medical Cannabis Program

PIERRE, S.D. – Today, Governor Kristi Noem, along with the South Dakota Department of Health and the South Dakota Department of Education, launched medcannabis.sd.gov, a website to answer questions and provide information about the upcoming medical cannabis program set to take effect on July 1, 2021.

“One of my jobs as governor is to make sure that the will of the people and all constitutional laws are enforced,” said Governor Kristi Noem. “I want South Dakota to have the best, most patient-focused medical cannabis program in the country. I’ve heard from people who are hurting and are hopeful for relief. My team is 100% committed to starting this program as quickly and as responsibly as possible for South Dakota.”

Medical cannabis will be legal on July 1, 2021, after the voters of South Dakota passed Initiated Measure 26 in November 2020. The medical cannabis program is on schedule. The Departments of Health and Education are creating and will operate the new regulatory program to ensure the safety of patients, students, and the public in this new industry.

“We are working hard to streamline the process to get medical cards out to people,” continued Governor Noem. “Other states have made mistakes that we do not want to repeat, so we have been careful in our approach.“

In conjunction with the website, Governor Noem also launched a new public service announcement (PSA) to tell the people of South Dakota where they can find more information about the medical cannabis program. You can watch the PSA here.

  1. Dear Governor Noem;

    We should be so conservative with 5G rollouts.

    Please reach-out.

    I can analyze deployment configurations of the technology and provide some suggestions to make it safer.

    Sincerely,

    John Dale, MS MIS

    1. Just an fyi,

      Nobody cares about your nonsense and no one is going to contact you.

  2. I’m not seeing PTSD on the list of symptoms.

    That’s too bad .. but then, I think SD LE aren’t too eager to hassle our people.

    We certainly aren’t interested in tangling with SD LE (quite the opposite).

    This is amazing to see .. many folks thought they would die before seeing SD legalize some form of cannabis.

  3. Someone saw the writing on the wall that stopping a measure more popular than her isn’t good for re-election. Too little too late for me. #neveragain #sorryKristi #Bye

  4. I had a few potheads tell my boyfriend and I that if my boyfriend started smoking cannabis it could cure his male pattern baldness. No plugs or transplants needed.
