Torts; providing certain immunity. Effective date.
SB 1755 provides immunity from civil lawsuits for religious organizations and their security personnel (including volunteers) in Oklahoma when security actions cause injury, death, or damage. This immunity applies to all security-related acts - whether accidental or intentional, including firearm use - while personnel are performing duties for the organization. The law, effective November 1, 2026, codifies this protection under Oklahoma Statutes Title 76, Section 113. It directly affects religious groups and their security staff by shielding them from tort claims related to security operations.
