South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem has signed Senate Bill 46, which protects fairness in women’s sports. This is the first bill that Governor Noem has signed in the 2022 legislative session.
“We have ensured that fairness in girls’ sports will be protected at both the K-12 and collegiate level,” said Governor Kristi Noem. “I am grateful for everyone who worked together to get this bill across the finish line. With this legislation, we will guarantee that our daughters and granddaughters have the same athletic opportunities as previous generations.”

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem, flanked by supporters of the bill, signed SB46 into law Feb. 3, 2022. Noem proposed the bill saying it’s an issue of fairness in women’s sports, not discrimination against transgender people.
Following the bill signing, Governor Noem also signed Senate Bill 45, which revises notice and record keeping requirements of real estate brokerages.
Governor Noem has signed two bills into law.
