SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) - A Washington, D.C., law and lobbying firm says it's talking with former U.S. Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin about joining the firm.
John Bode, principal lawyer with Olsson Frank Weeda, tells the Argus Leader that the firm would be "greatly flattered" to have the South Dakota Democrat who holds a law degree from Georgetown University. He says an arrangement has not been finalized.
1 of the firm's specialties is agriculture and food policy. Herseth Sandlin was a member of the House Agriculture Committee before losing her seat to Republican Kristi Noem in last year's election.
Herseth Sandlin has said she might consider running for office again. Some Democrats want her to run against Noem.
Noem says she's too busy representing the state's interests in Congress to worry about Herseth Sandlin's plans.
