On today's show...
South Dakota's 2024 legislative session came to a close last week. We recap the top stories of the year with SDPB's news crew.
SDPB's C.J. Keene, Evan Walton and Lee Strubinger share the issues and bills they reported on this year. They also share what they're watching now that the session is over.
We then learn more about the highlights from this year's session with our Dakota Political Junkies. Mike Card, Ph.D., and Jon Hunter step into the studio.
They also discuss why they said they were "befuddled" by Gov. Kristi Noem's video endorsement of a cosmetic dentist in Texas.
Plus, Steve Hildebrand, founder and chair of Promising Futures Fund, joins us to talk about the importance of getting books into kids' hands. He talks about poverty in Sioux Falls and the obstacles low-income students face in education.
