A House committee rejected a bill aimed at making tribal membership cards valid forms of identification.
HB1296 would have made a tribal identification card valid in all cases where a South Dakota driver’s license is needed for identification. The House Local Government Committee voted 7-5 on Feb. 17 to kill the measure after opponents raised objections about security, business rights and feasibility.
