State Travel Reimbursement Act; allowing the Statewide Charter School Board to enter into certain contracts and establish certain accounts. Effective date. Emergency.

SB 2048 amends Oklahoma's State Travel Reimbursement Act to authorize the Statewide Charter School Board to contract for travel expenses like meals, lodging, and conference costs for employees or approved personnel. It requires state agencies - including the Charter School Board - to electronically submit quarterly or monthly reports on these expenditures to state leadership. The bill also limits travel costs to existing daily reimbursement rates and mandates direct payments to vendors for approved expenses. This change applies to all state agencies using the travel reimbursement system, with an emergency effective date.
