Central Bank Digital Currency, South Dakota UCC Veto
South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem vetoed a bill updating the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), claiming it was a "Trojan horse" for a government-led Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). Noem argued that the bill's definition of currency would pave the way for federal control over spending and the banning of Bitcoin. This move aligns with concerns regarding Executive Order 14067, which directs the government to explore the implementation of a digital dollar.
