HB 1264 provides state funding to establish and operate a new Liaison for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Persons Office, which will focus on addressing cases involving missing and murdered Native Americans in South Dakota. The bill declares this funding an emergency appropriation, meaning the money becomes available immediately rather than waiting for the normal budget process.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
