Legislative News – Week #7 Raise Concerns About the Measure
2020 South Dakota Legislature | February 28, 2020 Legislative News – Week #7 raise concerns about the measure. By way of background, the SDBA opposed legislation introduced in SB133 – Allow Government reserves to be invested in 2017 to allow counties to shop their deposits statewide. certificates of deposit or time deposits in banks We lost that battle by overwhelming margins in both outside of South Dakota. As previously discussed, houses. SJR502 proposed to amend South Dakota’s Constitution to allow units of local government (counties, cities, I did raise industry concerns during the committee school districts, etc.) to send up to 20% of their cash hearing on SB133. I suggested it is sound public policy reserves to the State Treasurer for deposit into a Pooled to keep local government reserves in local banks as a Local Government Investment Fund. Those funds would source of funding for loans to local residents and main be transferred to the South Dakota Investment Council street businesses. I also asserted that local governments for investment in a diverse portfolio of stocks, bonds, (counties, cities and K-12 schools) receive the lion’s mutual funds and the like. This proposal, sponsored by share (73%) of the franchise tax paid by community and Sen. Jeff Partridge (R-Rapid City,) was tabled in favor of commercial banks in South Dakota. In FY2019, that a hoghouse amendment to SB133. amounted to $36 million contributed to local treasuries. As approved by a vote of 7-1 in the Senate Members of the SDBA Board of Directors convened via Appropriations Committee on Tuesday and the full conference call earlier this afternoon to review the Senate by a vote of 34-1 on Thursday, SB133 expands current status of SB133.

WE BELIEVE: That rural families in rural enterprises are a balancing force in the social and political structure that is vital to the stability, preservation and improvement of representative democratic government, of an efficient and economic productive system and of a satisfying world society; That the individually owned and operated farm is essential to the preserva- tion and enrichment of the private enterprise system; That people living in rural areas cannot successfully compete with other segments of economic structure in maintaining and improving the standard of living unless rural America does effectively organize its economic and social forces; That cooperative principles and techniques are the best ways and means for the rural people to continuously achieve these ends. Touchstone Energy® Four Core Values u Integrity u Innovation u Accountability u Commitment to Community STATEMENT OF PURPOSE The South Dakota Rural Electric Association, established in 1942, exists to serve our members. SDREA operates on the premise that, by pooling resources, members can receive services through SDREA more cost-effectively and ef- ficiently than they do on their own. We believe: 1.
