Sioux Falls, S.D. (AP) - Gov. Dennis Daugaard is set to speak in Sioux Falls about his budget proposal for the upcoming legislative session. Daugaard will discuss the plan on Monday. The Republican governor outlined the $4.8 billion budget during a speech Tuesday. The proposal includes increases to higher education, Medicaid providers and state workers, among other areas. Most of the $60 million in one-time spending would pay off debt to help public higher education institutions freeze tuition. Daugaard has also proposed to expand the Medicaid program for low-income and disabled people if some conditions are met. Daugaard has said the state's cost for expanding Medicaid would have to be covered by savings to move forward.
