HB1259 appropriates state funding for the routine costs of running South Dakota's legislature, courts, executive branch agencies, state institutions, and public schools, as well as payments on the state's debt. This is the state's general operating budget bill that provides the money needed to keep basic government functions running during the fiscal year. The bill doesn't change existing law—it simply allocates funds to cover these established expenses.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
