Sioux Falls to shave $38M from budget amid federal cuts
South Dakota's largest city prepares for DOGE-era spending as Trump advances budget reform

Finance Director Shawn Pritchett told the City Council Tuesday that as much as $38.6 million — 57 percent — of the $67.57 million in federal funds budgeted for the year may not come through, as national budget cuts cast doubt over previously projected grant revenues.
