SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (MITCHELLNOW) Pushback is growing in Sioux Falls over Governor Rhoden’s new public safety plan, Operation Prairie Thunder. Dozens of residents were expected to speak at last night’s city council meeting, voicing concerns about the plan’s immigration enforcement and its coordination with ICE. Organizers stress it wasn’t a protest, but a call for the city to use its Home Rule authority which could allow Sioux Falls to opt out of the initiative. Critics fear the operation may cause panic in immigrant communities and discourage people from going to school, work, or engaging in daily life. Groups like South Dakota Voices for Peace and Indivisible 605 encouraged residents to share personal stories during public comments. For more Government stories from MitchellNow.com, Click Here.
