South Dakota GOP legislators obviously didn’t get the message last year with SB 128 and are back to spreading hate across our state. Last year

with your help, the South Dakota Democratic Party led the fight against discrimination in South Dakota. We need you to stand with us again by signing our petition.

HB 1220 is almost identical to an Arizona bill so radical even Gov. Jan Brewer had to veto it!  It would allow anyone to discriminate against another for any religious reason.  HB 1195 and HB 1161 are aimed at preventing the SD High School Activities Association from allowing transgender students to participate in activities because of the legislators own insecurities.
 
These bills all work differently, but have one common theme: they amount to bullying the LGBT community, and we need you to stand up again and say enough is enough!
 
 
The South Dakota GOP think they can get away with these bills because it’s politically expedient to attack the LGBT community who just want to live their lives. We need to let them know again they are wrong! 
 
With your help, we can stop these dangerous bills in their tracks.
 
In solidarity,
Sen. Angie Buhl O’Donnell (D-Sioux Falls)
