This bill reorganizes how South Dakota distributes money from the Employer's Investment in South Dakota's Future Fund, a state fund used for research and economic development grants. The changes clarify what types of projects qualify for funding—including research support, scholarships at state colleges and technical schools, workforce training, infrastructure, and business retention—and adjust the administrative process for distributing these funds through the Governor's Office of Economic Development.
