This type of commemoration does not change existing state law but formally acknowledges her contributions to South Dakota.
AI-generated summary
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
The amendment added seven additional House sponsors (Emery, Gosch, Greenfield, Moore, Muckey, Novstrup, and Shorma) and three Senate sponsors (Foster, Duhamel, and Perry) to the commemoration, while removing the legislative markup formatting indicators—this broadens the bill's support without changing its substantive purpose of honoring Yvonne Jane DeCory's service to Lakota youth.
