“Politicians in Pierre should work just as hard as the voters that elect them. Let's get back to work!”

BJ's Vision for
South Dakota

BJ Motley has made a career fighting for the South Dakotan worker. In Pierre, he’ll use that same commitment to the average citizen and work to build a better state for everyone.

Our Homes

As much as South Dakotans need a place to work, they need a place to live. As the state moves on from record-spending, leaders will need to get creative to make sure living in South Dakota remains an opportunity for all.

We can do this together by:

Prioritizing homeowners
Fighting for lower property taxes and fair appraisal policies
Easing regulations on municipalities limiting urban development

Our Jobs

South Dakota’s economy continues to outshine similar states around the country. As our economy grows, we must put in the work to upgrade the workforce and the employment opportunities available to it.

I will work to:

Improve access to childcare for employees
Promote developing industries through regulatory reform and funding
Protect workers’ rights in and out of the workplace

Our Families

South Dakota families need a champion in Pierre so they can focus on their lives. Here in Sioux Falls, families are being pulled apart as suicide rates rise, healthcare costs spiral, and our young professionals move away.

I will work for families to ensure:

Improved access to mental health services and rehabilitation
Affordable, accessible care opportunities when patients need them
Competitive tuition rates for South Dakota’s students
