South Dakota will require the Legislative Research Council to post each legislator's voting record on a public webpage, showing how they voted on every bill, resolution, and committee matter during legislative sessions starting July 1, 2026. The voting records must be easy to find on each legislator's profile page and also note when a legislator was absent or excused from a vote. This creates a new public transparency requirement that didn't exist before.
