HB 1194 provides temporary funding to the Attorney General's Office to pay for a staff position dedicated to working on issues related to missing and murdered Indigenous persons in South Dakota. The bill declares this funding an emergency matter, allowing it to take effect immediately rather than waiting for the standard implementation date.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
