SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - A bill to keep South Dakota in summer time hours year-round was doomed from the start in the House State Affairs Committee today.
The bill exempted the state from Daylight Saving Time but that’s exactly what the writers sought to achieve border to border.
After the bill was amended to exempt the state from Standard Time it was sent to the 41st day effectively killing the measure.
The bill's title was wrongly titled, exempting South Dakota from Daylight Savings Time, when the appropriate usage is Daylight Saving (no s) Time.
