(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection Survey) “My mom. She sacrificed her own dreams and ambitions so that my nine siblings and I could live a life better than the one she had. Despite her financial struggles, she earned a Bachelor's degree, bought her own home, and always made sure there was food on our table. She is the epitome of what it means to fight, and her example has inspired me to continue her dream — ensuring that my children may live a life better than the one I received.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection Survey) “Some one word examples would be; honest, transparent, humility, courage, (all of which is honestly hard to find in our elected officials.) Being able to serve on the behalf of those who elected you and not on the behalf of your party or your own personal agenda takes guts, which is why I added "courage" to the list above. It takes guts to stand up for what you believe in, which is why I've decided to run for this seat.”

“I'm Becky Drury, former Representative for District 34. After a move across town and a vacant House seat within my new home's district, Governor Noem appointed me to fill the District 34 seat during the 2024 session.”
(Candidate Campaign Website) “Knowing the move was the right timing for us, I was deeply appreciative of the Governor's appointment that allowed me to continue in my leadership role as House Majority Whip and serve District 34 for the remainder of the term.”
