PIERRE — Less than 24 hours after its revival in the South Dakota Senate, Gov. Kristi Noem’s food sales tax cut proposal was again rejected in the state House Tuesday morning.

About an hour later, a property tax rebate package passed out of the Senate also met its defeat in a conference committee.

That leaves just two tax relief proposals alive in the Legislature heading into the final two days of South Dakota’s 98th Legislative Session, both of which would lower the state’s general sales tax rate varying degrees.
