Tribe to move forward on marijuana facility after failed bill

After failing to gain the support of a legislative panel Tuesday, the Flandreau Santee Sioux Tribe will turn its gazes to the federal level in an attempt to re-open its shuttered marijuana grow facilities.

The tribe last year began growing marijuana on the reservation and planned to open a marijuana lounge on New Year's Eve. But after consulting with the attorney general and the U.S. attorney's office for the district of South Dakota, the tribe opted to burn their crops in November for fear that the facility would be raided by federal agents.
