HB 2990 prohibits Oklahoma law enforcement officers from wearing face coverings that conceal their identity during public interactions while performing official duties, with specific safety exceptions (like medical masks, helmets for hazardous conditions, or SWAT operations). It requires officers to visibly display their name, agency, and badge number during public contact, except during undercover assignments. All law enforcement agencies must create and publicly post written policies detailing these identification requirements and limited undercover exceptions. The bill takes effect November 1, 2026, and directly affects all Oklahoma police and sheriff's departments.
