HB1191 appropriates state funding to the Department of Tribal Relations to support children's learning centers that teach the Lakota language. The bill declares this funding matter an emergency, which allows it to take effect immediately rather than waiting for the standard effective date. This is new spending that supports early childhood education programs focused on preserving and teaching Native American language.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
