HJR 1085 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Oklahoma constitution; right to work; repeal; ballot title; filing.

HJR 1085 is a procedural resolution directing Oklahoma voters to decide on repealing Section 1A of Article XXIII (the state's "right to work" constitutional provision) through a ballot referendum. It requires the Secretary of State to place the repeal proposal on the ballot with a specific title explaining it would remove the "right to work" constitutional language. The resolution sets the ballot language to ask voters: "SHALL THE PROPOSAL BE APPROVED?" with "YES" and "NO" options. This bill does not change Oklahoma law but initiates a voter approval process for a constitutional amendment. The resolution was introduced by Representative Deck and referred to the Rules Committee on February 3, 2026.
