By the Numbers: South Dakota’s Roadmap to Prosperity
South Dakota ranks 43rd in teacher freedom—AFP is working to change that by supporting reforms that give educators more flexibility to innovate and meet student needs.
Over 1,200 South Dakotans Engaged in Grassroots Action This Year
More Than 50 Events Held Across the State in 2025
South Dakota ranks 30th for education choice. South Dakota does fairly well in empowering families to choose among district schools but could do more to expand education choice.
Issues we are working on
Education
All students deserve the opportunity to discover, develop, and deploy their unique passions and talents. Instead of limiting families to a one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to education, we should expand their available choices so they can customize their student’s educational options in ways that best suit their unique needs.
The Economy
America is in the middle of an economic crisis. Unsustainable government spending and burdensome regulations have driven up inflation and resulted in high food, energy, and housing costs — limiting the economic progress of nearly every American. That’s why we’re working to reduce wasteful spending, unleash energy abundance, and empower workers to prove prosperity is still possible and together we can reignite the American Dream.
Taxes
Prosperity is Possible when we support policies that hold our leaders accountable, promote responsible spending, curb inflation, and make goods and services more affordable for Americans. Government needs to work for us and budget responsibly.
