House approves annual controlled‑substances update; emergency clause requires two‑thirds majority and passed
Pierre — Senate Bill 35, a Department of Health‑sponsored annual update to substances listed on the controlled substances schedule, passed final passage in the House Thursday with the two‑thirds majority required by its emergency clause.

Representative Hunt said the measure is routine and updates Schedule I drugs in state statute. Because the bill carries an emergency clause, it required and received a two‑thirds affirmative vote on the House floor.

Clerk counts recorded 65 ayes, 3 nays and 1 excused; the bill was declared passed.
