This interview originally aired on "In the Moment" on SDPB Radio.
House Bill 1206 was a casualty of the budget battles during the final days of legislative session. That proposal would have helped fund the construction of a new elementary school near Ellsworth Air Force Base.
Sen. Helene Duhamel is a Republican serving that district. She joins us to discuss why the bill went before the Legislature and why she thinks it should have made it to the governor's desk.
Plus, we talk about the base's role on the world stage.
