SB 204 South Dakota Senate · 2025 Regular Session

prohibit the expenditure of certain funds appropriated for purposes related to the construction of a prison facility.

This bill prohibits the use of certain funds that were specifically allocated for constructing a prison facility in South Dakota. It directly affects state budget administrators and officials responsible for managing appropriations related to prison construction projects. The key provision restricts spending from these designated funds on the prison construction, effectively limiting how the money can be utilized for that purpose. This measure does not eliminate the funds but rather restricts their application to the originally intended project.
