The Interview #126 | Dylan Jordan - After Session

The Interview #126 | Dylan Jordan - After Session

Author: Craig Weinberg April 23, 2026 Duration: 1:23:34

In this episode of The Interview Podcast, Craig sits down with District 4 Representative Dylan Jordan as he reflects on his first term in the South Dakota House and makes his case for re-election. The conversation digs into what actually happens in Pierre—where unexpected debates take center stage, major policy changes can move with little discussion, and pressure from leadership and lobbyists shapes outcomes behind the scenes. Jordan walks through his approach to governing, including his focus on limiting government growth, questioning continued increases in laws and spending, and pushing back on what he sees as unnecessary taxation and incentives. They cover property tax reform, education funding, the role of government in economic development, and the broader challenge of changing systems that are deeply embedded over generations. It’s a direct look at how one candidate is thinking about the future of South Dakota, the trade-offs involved in making policy, and what it means to hold to principle in a system built on compromise.
