South Dakotans First has launched its grassroots coalition to protect landowner property rights. South Dakota Farmers Union President Doug Sombke said the push for carbon pipelines highlighted the gaps in eminent domain laws. “It all came about because of the CO2 pipelines that used eminent domain for their own private gain.” Sombke believes if carbon is determined to be a commodity it will shape how the coalition approaches the issue in the next legislative session.The coalition is currently comprised of South Dakota Farmers Union and Dakota Rural Action, among others.
