South Dakota is changing the rules for who can serve on the Game, Fish and Parks Commission by requiring applicants to submit financial statements so officials can verify they meet all qualifications—including being a farmer earning at least two-thirds of their income from crops or livestock if they're one of the four required farmer members. The bill also clarifies that applicants who don't meet these qualifications cannot be nominated for the commission.
