HB1237 directs South Dakota to use federal COVID-19 relief money (from the Coronavirus State Fiscal Recovery Fund) to provide cash assistance directly to state residents. The bill creates a new spending program rather than changing existing law—it simply appropriates these federal dollars for direct payments to South Dakota citizens.
