This concurrent resolution expresses the South Dakota Legislature's support for three initiatives of the Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate tribe: Native language revitalization programs, federal funding for new Bureau of Indian Education schools, and federal green energy programs for tribal nations. The resolution does not change any existing state law but rather serves as a formal statement of legislative backing for these tribal priorities aimed at improving education, employment, and economic opportunity on the reservation.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
