Excise tax; authorizing counties and municipalities to levy tax on medical marijuana. Effective date.

SB 1125 authorizes Oklahoma counties and municipalities to levy an excise tax on medical marijuana sales, but only after voter approval via special election or initiative petition (requiring 5% of registered voters' signatures). The tax must be approved by a majority vote, cannot be re-proposed within six months if rejected, and applies only to sales within the local jurisdiction. Funds must be dedicated to specific purposes like public safety (not redirectable without new voter approval), and counties must create revolving funds for these designated uses. The bill also states that if recreational marijuana is legalized, the same tax rules would automatically apply to it.
