When we invest in schools, we invest in South Dakota’s future. That means giving our kids more ways to learn and grow into good jobs, no matter what they choose to do.

Every South Dakotan should be able to live, work, and raise a family where they live. To do that, we need an economy that helps everyone, not just people with power in Washington.

Native communities are a big part of South Dakota’s past and future stories. But for a long time, native voices have not been heard. It’s time to listen, work together, and show real respect.

Too many folks in South Dakota are one emergency away from a financial crisis, or miles away from the care they need. In both cases, we can do better, this is America.
