This concurrent resolution (a non-binding statement of the legislature's values) establishes standards of conduct for South Dakota legislators, calling on them to act with integrity, loyalty to their duties, impartiality, and accountability both during legislative sessions and between them. The resolution emphasizes that legislators should uphold the state constitution, statutes, and legislative rules while maintaining public trust and never appearing to compromise their integrity. This is an aspirational statement rather than a law that creates new legal requirements or penalties.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
