This resolution instructs South Dakota's U.S. Representatives and Senators to vote in support of eliminating the federal Department of Education. It does not change state law itself, but rather expresses the state legislature's position that Congress should abolish the federal agency responsible for education policy and programs.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
