The bill proposes to establish regulations regarding the display of flags on public property in South Dakota. It specifies that only certain flags may be displayed, including the United States flag, the state flag, official military flags, flags of counties and municipalities, flags of other states, flags of recognized foreign nations not engaged in hostile action, and flags of Indian tribes. Additionally, any flag displayed must adhere to federal and state flag display protocols, with the United States flag taking precedence over all others.

Furthermore, the bill prohibits the display of flags that represent political viewpoints, such as those related to gender, political ideology or party, race, or sexual orientation. It allows for exceptions for educational displays approved by relevant state boards or agencies and temporary displays authorized by the Governor for ceremonial purposes. This legislation aims to maintain a standard for flag displays on public property while ensuring that political expressions are not represented in this context.
