Former State Rep. Taffy Howard has apparently become a lobbyist for US Term Limits:
Howard will serve as the South Dakota State Chair for U.S. Term Limits. The organization, which is based out of Washington, D.C., states their mission is to enact and defend term limits on elected offices at all levels of government via the ballot box, legislatures and the courts with an ultimate aim of enacting a congressional term limits amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
Although, I would venture that for the time being, she’ll spend most of her time being a DC lobbyist or in other states, since she’s legally banned from lobbying in SD until January 2025.
But I’m sure that’s fine, since we’re not used to her being in Pierre the entire time she’s supposed to be anyway.
Wow Taffy is such a swamp creature.
I’d agree Pat that she probably won’t be in Pierre much. There may not be a less effective person to lobby than Taffy. They’ve really hurt their cause here.
I’m sure she’s just doing what she thinks is right. This isn’t self-interested or anything….! (Commence eye roll) 🙄

Anything for a $
She will be back in pierre roaming the 3rd floor and buying steak dinners for her pals soon enough.
Med rare please.
i think this is a good fit. i wish her well.
Self-appointed?
Group should have researched this hire. How is a lobbyist who passed a few bills during her years in Pierre and has 0 credibility going to make any change?
Did she pass that many? I think she passed 1. And spent her last session dodging a lot of votes, including the Ravnsborg impeachment.
Who’s up for another year of debating a constitutional convention? Anyone? Anyone?
