This concurrent resolution is a non-binding statement expressing the South Dakota Legislature's support for free-market economic development based on limited government, deregulation, and entrepreneurial growth rather than government incentives. It does not change any existing state laws, but instead encourages state policymakers to develop future policies that reduce regulations and avoid using tax credits or subsidies to attract businesses. The resolution reflects a philosophical position that businesses should choose South Dakota based on its business environment rather than government financial incentives.
This bill does not directly amend codified state law.
