If you look at the roster for House Ed this AM, the good news is that State Rep. Mike Stevens is the new vice-chair of that committee after Phil Jensen was demoted for trying to de-fund the Huron School District.
The bad news is that House leadership is leaving Phil Jensen on House Ed at all.
If they were going to remove him as a show to South Dakotans that the Legislature has standards and that the asylum is not being ran by the lunatics they’re supposed to protect us from… too late. That ship has sailed.
That is good news! Unfortunately until these fringe extremists are replaced next election they will continue to risk horrible legislation getting passed into law.
Who decides who stays and goes. Is it the ed committee or majority leadership?
Leadership
Thank you
Of course Hansen and Odenbach want him still on.
I’m sure Phil is signaling “his heart goes out to all of us” right now.
