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.
