The South Dakota Legislature has passed three bills that together make up what is called the Landowner Bill of Rights. South Dakota rancher and long-time ag advocate Amanda Radke says this legislation is a slap in the face to landowners, simply paving the way for one company’s carbon pipeline. “Compromise, in this situation, is actually extortion,” Radke said. “There is no compromising on private property rights. There’s no compromise on the Constitution. So they could slap a fancy name on it so it looks good on Fox News, but the landowner bill of rights is actually just totally insulting.” Radke says landowner rights are already covered in the Constitution and encourages opponents of this legislation to continue to speak up.
