SCR 1 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Concurrent resolution; amending Joint Rules for the 60th Legislature.

SCR 1 amends the internal operating rules for Oklahoma's 60th Legislature, focusing on procedural changes for joint legislative operations. It establishes detailed rules for Joint Committees, including how they are chaired (requiring co-chairs from both chambers), scheduled, and vote (requiring majority support from both chambers for recommendations). The resolution also specifies procedures for the Joint Committee on Appropriations and Budget, including membership and meeting requirements. As a procedural resolution, it affects only the legislature's internal processes, not public policy or external stakeholders.
