A lifetime of standing up for South Dakota
Frank Kloucek has spent his life standing up for South Dakota’s working families, farmers, landowners, small towns, and rural communities. A lifelong advocate for fairness and accountability, Frank believes public service should always be about people first — not politics, special interests, or powerful insiders.
Rooted in South Dakota values
Raised with strong South Dakota values, Frank understands the challenges facing rural communities because he has lived them. He knows what it means to work hard, stretch a dollar, and fight for a fair deal. Throughout his years in public service, including his time in the South Dakota Legislature, Frank earned a reputation as an independent voice willing to ask tough questions, challenge the status quo, and stand up for those too often left out of the conversation.
A strong voice for fairness
Now, Frank is running for the South Dakota Public Utilities Commission to be a rural advocate for consumers and a strong voice for fairness in utility decisions. He believes South Dakotans deserve a PUC that prioritizes their needs and ensures equitable treatment for all. His commitment is to bring transparency and accountability to the commission, ensuring decisions are made with the public's best interest at heart.
