This bill proposes the designation of "Dancing Dakota," written and composed by Chuck Suchy, as the official state waltz of North Dakota. Additionally, it establishes a new section in the North Dakota Century Code that outlines the process for appointing a state troubadour. The chairman of the North Dakota Council on the Arts will be responsible for designating an individual to serve as the official state troubadour or trobairitz for a term of five years, with provisions for filling any vacancies that may arise during the term.

The bill also includes a provision for the appointment of an official state troubadour following the conclusion of the term of the inaugural troubadour, who was appointed by the sixty-ninth legislative assembly. This legislation aims to promote North Dakota's cultural heritage by formally recognizing both a state waltz and a state troubadour.
