Episode Congress Tries to Ban Insider Trading and Voter ID | Pierre News Cover

Beschreibung

The House just passed a controversial bill tackling insider trading by lawmakers and voter ID requirements — but it’s already sparking fierce debate. The measure bans members of Congress and their families from trading certain stocks, with penalties including fines or forfeiture of profits, while still allowing mutual funds. Tied to this is a voter ID mandate for federal elections, requiring state-issued IDs like driver’s licenses or passports, with provisional ballots and religious affidavits as alternatives. Democrats slammed the stock trading rules as a “fake ban” and warned the voter ID provision could suppress votes — especially by mail — and exceed state norms. The bill passed 232-198, mostly along party lines, and now faces a steep climb in the evenly split Senate, where securing 60 votes will be a major hurdle.

Episode Burials in Heat and Memory | Pierre News Cover

Burials in Heat and Memory | Pierre News

In a hauntingly vivid meditation on loss, the author reflects on burying his parents in the brutal heat of South Dakota summers — his father in 1968 at 56, his mother in 2004 at 86. Though his father’s death was intellectually foreseen, his towering strength made the loss all the more jarring; his mother, though smaller, embodied quiet resilience, raising five children on a farm, surviving widowhood, and staying fiercely connected to her community. Both deaths, though anticipated, left deep wounds — and both were laid to rest in their home state during the same season, a poignant coincidence of memory and place. The piece is a tender, powerful reckoning with grief, legacy, and the enduring strength found in family and land.
