We Already Protect the South Dakota Constitution
We Already Protect the Constitution
Supporters claim Amendment L protects the Constitution. But here's the truth:
Most constitutional amendments already fail to pass.
South Dakota voters carefully review proposed changes — and reject many.
We already have safeguards:
- ✔Signature requirements
- ✔Public debate
- ✔Statewide voting
- ✔Majority approval
We don't need new barriers.
If Amendment L Passes
It becomes harder for citizens to:
- • Hold government accountable
- • Protect property rights
- • Pass ethics reforms
- • Respond to future challenges
This doesn't protect the Constitution — it locks in the status quo.
