''Advocacy is one of our top priorities. Whether pushing to keep South Dakota a business-friendly state, blocking new taxes or regulations, or ensuring that our state’s policy-making process is not undermined, our experienced team’s focus is working on behalf of business.''
- Nathan Sanderson, Executive Director
