Governor Kristi Noem wants lawmakers back for a special session in late May or early June.
She wants legislators to address several issues changes to a medical marijuana program and what to do with new coronavirus relief money.
Noem also wants action that could face an uphill challenge in the state Senate.
Governor Noem issued two executive orders moments after state lawmakers failed to approve changes to a partial veto on a bill. Noem says her orders are meant to protect women’s high school and collegiate sports.
Critics say the move targets the transgender community.
Noem says her orders are temporary until legislators convene.
