The goal of this scorecard is simple: make government transparent to the people they represent. History has proven that free people are capable of extraordinary things—but many current laws hold South Dakotans back from truly thriving. That’s why our growing community of activists across the state are fighting every day to make the Mount Rushmore State a better place to live, work, and raise a family. We support legislation that enhances liberty and opportunity and oppose legislation that restricts those two concepts. As such, the bills listed in this scorecard reflect that. What you won’t see are grades or scores for individual legislators. What you will see is a description of issues and legislation with how our legislators voted during the two years that they served in this term. We hope this information helps you stay informed about how your Senators and Representatives have voted on important issues. If nothing else, it will serve as a basis for your conversations with them. We trust that policymakers are working to remove barriers that make it more difficult for South Dakotans to achieve their full potential and believe this tool will help shape their thinking toward that.

The proclamation commends SDWG for its multitude of missions and service to local communities, counties and the state. A copy of the proclamation is attached at the end of this newsletter. GOV. DAUGAARD POSES WITH THE SDWG CONTINGENT AT THE STATE CAPITOL ON CIVIL AIR PATROL DAY Photo by Lieutenant Vincent Brown, Sioux Falls Composite Squadron 1 HOT NEWS: WING LEGISLATIVE DAY AT STATE CAPITOL: On Thursday, 20 February members of the Wing from across the state converged on the state Capitol in Pierre to meet with legislators to thank them for their support. Over 40 members representing all six squadrons made the trip. Col. Seten commented, “The purpose is to tell state policymakers the story of Civil Air Patrol in South Dakota, of the many volunteer hours spent on air and ground missions for local, county, tribal, state and federal government, law enforcement agencies and first responder organizations. We also want them to know of our cadet program that prepares young people not just for careers in the military, but to be good citizens.” He also said it is important that the public understands in a time of limited budgets, SDWG helps stretch the resources of the state and saves money by using well-trained, professional volunteers, volunteers who are held to the same level of performance and knowledge as their paid colleagues.
