Ted Klaudt - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While in office, he co-sponsored several bills that took aim at sex offenders, including "community safety zones" where sex offenders are not allowed to reside or enter zones within 500 feet of schools, public parks and swimming pools. He also co-sponsored the bill that required South Dakota to be included in the National Sex Offender Registry, a bill that requires the Department of Social Services to inform parents about abuse or neglect involving their child who is under the state's care, and a (defeated) bill that would have prohibited the distribution of contraceptives to high school students.
