The Legislature finds that Chapter 9 of the 2001 Session Laws, "An Act to replace certain geographic place names that use offensive names, words, or phrases", was enacted by the South Dakota Legislature in 2001. This legislation resulted in action by the United States Board on Geographic Names changing several offensive place names in 2008. However, several offensive place names identified in the 2001 legislation have not yet been changed, and the Legislature urges the United States Board on Geographic Names to proceed with further action on these place names.
