We have all the information you need to know about our advocacy efforts and how you can get involved.
Making Your Voice Heard
Advocating for what is important to South Dakotans and giving you a voice at the state and federal levels is a priority for AARP South Dakota. Your voice matters. We also work with local organizations and officials to make our communities more livable and greater places to age with dignity and purpose.

It seems like we were just at the Capitol for our Lobby Day in January and now, already, the 2025 South Dakota Legislative Session has come to a close.
The calendar has turned to March, which means basketball, the return of Daylight Savings Time (reminder: turn your clocks ahead an hour this weekend!) and the end of the 100th Legislative Session.
There are two weeks left in the 2025 South Dakota legislative session, and AARP South Dakota’s work is not done! This weekly recap starts by celebrating a victory and extending a heartfelt THANK YOU to all of our advocates!
South Dakota voters, we need your help! In addition to providing our regular weekly recap of the week's activity in Pierre, we have an important action item.
With Week 5 in the books, we have officially reached the halfway point of the 2025 South Dakota legislative session. Lawmakers wrapped up Legislative Day 21 this week, and the session ends on Legislative Day 38.
The calendar has turned to February, and suddenly we are already four weeks into Legislative Session. The deadline for introducing bills was this past Wednesday, so the final tally for the Legislature’s 2025 agenda is over 540 bills, resolutions and commemorations.
It’s hard to believe, but we are at the end of January and the completion of Week 3 of the 2025 South Dakota legislative session.
A group of AARP South Dakota volunteers will head to Pierre next week, and we'll be hosting two events where they will be able to talk with state lawmakers.
The 2025 South Dakota legislative session is off and running, and AARP South Dakota has Pierre covered for you!
