I am honored that Governor Larry Rhoden supported two concepts that grew out of my work and dedication during the Property Tax Reduction Summer Study. • 𝐒𝐁𝟏𝟐𝟓 – Establish the Homeowner Tax Reduction Fund
• 𝐒𝐁𝟏𝟏𝟖 – Deposit certain tax revenues into the Homeowner Tax Reduction Fund Governor Larry Rhoden chose to incorporate these ideas by “hoghousing” the bills and introducing 𝐒𝐁𝟐𝟒𝟓, which creates the Homeowner Property Tax Reduction Fund and transfers money into it. I’m pleased to share that 𝐒𝐁𝟐𝟒𝟓 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐝𝐚𝐲! A special thank you to Speaker of the House Jon Hansen for South Dakota Governor. Lems Lt. Governor Majority Leader Scott Odenbach for South Dakota House District 31 for doing an outstanding job defending SB245 during the floor debate. Their leadership made a real difference. Tomorrow the bill heads to the Senate floor. I’m hopeful we can keep this momentum going as we continue working to deliver meaningful property tax relief for South Dakota homeowners.

Home stretch of session brings final legislative priorities into focus
With the drama of Crossover Day in the rearview, lawmakers are shifting focuses away from theatrics and back onto policy.

Lawmakers tangle with implications of numerous property tax proposals on table
With so many property tax proposals on the table, it may be difficult for any to break through the noise. However, statehouse leaders and candidates for the governor’s office are vying for the chance.

SB245-create the homeowner property tax reduction fund, and to transfer moneys to the homeowner property tax reduction fund- (a combination of the two bills I championed- SB125 and SB118) was hoghoused, is endorsed by Governor Larry Rhoden and will be heard on the House floor today.
I am thankful that my ideas are being considered. If the people win, I'm happy.
Together, SB96 and SB245 would add up to a historic property tax cut for South Dakotans. #PropertyTaxRelief

This won't accomplish squat shit. Coase School, cities and counties will just keep raising property taxes. Nothing in law to prevent or stop it.

“We take airports for granted,” Rapid City Mayor Salamun said. “Without that airport, we do not have the economy that we have. Without that airport, we do not have the opportunities that we have. Without that airport, we don’t have the future we could have.”

SB 245-create the homeowner property tax reduction fund, and to transfer moneys to the homeowner property tax reduction fund-
a combination of my two bills:
SB 118-deposit certain tax revenues into a homeowner tax reduction fund-
SB 125-establish the homeowner tax reduction fund -
evolved from the Property Tax Relief Summer Study that I served on, is now endorsed by Governor Larry Rhoden.
On Monday SB245 will be up for a vote on the House floor. “It would provide immediate, statewide relief by dedicating $56 million in one-time money for the first year, and the upcoming .3% increase in sales taxes in the future to property tax relief by buying down the general education levy on your property tax bill. This would result in an additional 15-20% reduction in your owner-occupied property taxes.”
Let’s give South Dakotans the property tax relief they demand and deserve!

Commissioned for the 100th legislative session, the Termesphere captures the Capitol’s architecture, legislators, and visitors using 6-point perspective.
Dick Termes is a Spearfish, South Dakota-based artist known for painting on spheres to represent complex, immersive environments.
If you look closely, you can see my fellow Senator Liz Larson (standing by me) painted near the bottom left of the sphere.

I was invited by Whitewood Elementary teachers Mrs. Meredith and Mrs. Zacher to speak in their 3rd and 4th grade classrooms about state government. We compared state laws to school and classroom rules; discussed the definition of state government; and identified the legislative, executive and judicial branches. Q. What is a bill?
A. Something that you get in the mail and have to pay before it’s overdue. We reviewed the key aspects of a State Bill and divided into ‘committees’ to create a bill for classroom presentation and debate. The bills up for consideration were:
• Free coffee and/or hot chocolate for teachers and students
• Adjust the i-Ready score range so students have more time to study
• Keep Mr. Porterfield as the WWE School Principal
• Build a heated rest area on the playground Q. Who can be a Legislator?
A. A priest. We examined South Dakota’s Citizen Legislature and how members often have other careers. I appreciate the invitation and hope the kids learned something about state legislature while having fun.

Kirby said he had THE BEST DAY EVER! I thoroughly enjoyed him telling me all about what he learned and the several bills that each group came up with, presented, and debated before passing for their classrooms! What a beautiful hands-on presentation from one of their very own senators!
