Governor Kristi Noem plans to sue the National Park Service for refusing a fireworks show this summer at Mt. Rushmore National Memorial.
Governor Noem made her announcement at a speech before the Watertown Rotary Club on Thursday.
“I’m going to file a lawsuit against the administration to get the fireworks back,” Noem said.
The governor says the document allowing last year’s July fireworks event included a multi-year agreement.
“Because I have contracts, I have done all the permits, I’ve done all the work. We’ve gone through all of this. There’s no reason to pull them from me, except for it being political. So, we’re going to challenge that. Unfortunately, That’s the only remedy that I have,” the governor said.
