HB 1776: Definitions and general provisions; enacting the United States and Oklahoma Flag Display Rights Act of 2025; emergency.

HB 1776, the "United States and Oklahoma Flag Display Rights Act of 2025," prohibits state or local government entities from restricting the display of the U.S. or Oklahoma flag on government property. It specifically allows individuals to display these flags from their own vehicles or while holding them, provided the display follows proper standards without alterations or defacement. The law directly affects citizens and groups seeking to display these flags on public property, such as parks or government buildings. It does not create new government requirements but prevents existing restrictions on flag displays meeting these conditions. The bill includes an emergency clause to take effect immediately upon approval.

SB 1009: Water and water rights; defining term. Effective date.

SB 1009 defines a "basin integrity study" in Oklahoma law as a scientific study to determine sustainable water flows for specific river basins during certain seasons. These studies must consider water needs for agriculture, environmental protection, tourism, and community development, but explicitly state they cannot revoke private water rights or interfere with existing water permits. The bill takes effect on November 1, 2025, and serves only to clarify terminology for future water management efforts.

HB 1914: Railroads; defining terms; requiring certain documents and identification to operate a train; effective date.

HB 1914 requires railroads operating in Oklahoma on main or branch lines to carry physical copies of key safety documents, including a freight manifest, emergency response guide, and Federal Railroad Administration safety certification, for all trains. It mandates that conductors, engineers, and railroad staff must have tangible, non-electronic identification documents on hand during operations. Violations incur daily civil penalties of $2,500-$10,000, with potential fines up to $250,000 for gross negligence causing harm. The law, effective November 1, 2025, applies directly to railroads and their operating personnel within Oklahoma.

HB 2946: Postsecondary education; Sergeant Bobby Swartz Act; waiver of fees and costs for grandchildren of persons killed in line of duty; effective date; emergency.

HB 2946 creates a tuition and room/board fee waiver for grandchildren (and children) of Oklahoma public safety officers who died in the line of duty. The bill expands existing education benefits to cover descendants of peace officers, firefighters, law enforcement retirees, and emergency medical technicians who died on duty. This waiver applies to all public colleges and career technology schools in Oklahoma for a five-year period. The policy change directly affects eligible descendants of fallen public safety workers by removing financial barriers to postsecondary education.

SB 1349: Roads and bridges; Rebuilding Oklahoma Access and Driver Safety Fund; modifying apportionment for certain fiscal years. Effective date. Emergency.

SB 1349 establishes the "Rebuilding Oklahoma Access and Driver Safety Fund" to provide dedicated funding for Oklahoma's road and bridge infrastructure. It mandates specific annual funding amounts starting at $80 million for fiscal year 2021, increasing to $1 billion annually by 2034, with the first $80 million allocated each year for debt service on transportation bonds before other projects. The fund must be used by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation for constructing, maintaining, and operating state roads, bridges, highways, and matching federal transportation funds. The bill also includes a mechanism to reduce fund allocations if the state faces a General Revenue Fund shortfall, and it declares an emergency to take effect immediately upon passage.

SB 1393: Income tax credit; creating the RESTORE Act; providing credit for certain adaptive reuse projects. Effective date. Emergency.

SB 1393, the RESTORE Act, creates a 50% tax credit for developers converting old, vacant commercial buildings (over 50 years old, vacant for 3+ years, and not eligible for historic tax credits) into residential housing. It directly affects property owners or developers who undertake "adaptive reuse" projects, covering extra renovation costs like environmental cleanup, code compliance, and infrastructure upgrades. The credit is capped at $5 million annually (2027-2037), requires 20% of units to be affordable for 10 years, and allows unused credit to carry forward to future tax years. Projects must meet specific affordability and location criteria, with annual reports tracking housing units and economic impact.

SB 1392: Income tax credit; modifying credit amount for qualified employee in aerospace sector. Effective date.

SB 1392 modifies Oklahoma's income tax credit for qualified employees in the aerospace sector. It increases the annual credit from $5,000 (for tax years 2009-2026) to $10,000 (for tax years 2027-2031), allowing a maximum of $10,000 per year for up to five total years. Unused credits can be carried forward to future tax years, but the credit cannot reduce taxes below zero. The bill would take effect November 1, 2026, if passed.

HB 3063: Motor vehicles; creating the Motor Vehicle Modernization Act of 2026; effective date.

HB 3063 creates the name "Motor Vehicle Modernization Act of 2026" for future legislation and sets its effective date as November 1, 2026. This is a procedural bill with no substantive policy provisions, as explicitly stated in the text ("not to be codified in the Oklahoma Statutes"). It does not establish new rules, taxes, or requirements for vehicle owners or operators. The bill serves only to name a future act and define its implementation timeline.

HB 3351: Pardon and Parole Board; increasing compensation for members of the Board; and providing an effective date.

HB 3351 increases annual compensation for Oklahoma's Pardon and Parole Board members and establishes attendance requirements tied to pay. The bill sets the Board Chair's annual pay at $24,800 (split into $400 for meeting prep and $1,667 for monthly meetings) and members' pay at $22,800 (split into $400 prep and $1,500 per meeting). Members who miss meetings without justification lose their monthly compensation, and missing two or more meetings may lead to removal proceedings. This directly affects the Board members, who are appointed to review parole and pardon cases.

HB 3965: State government; maternity leave; state employees; effective date.

HB 3965 requires Oklahoma state agencies to provide full-time employees with two or more years of service with six weeks of paid maternity leave following the birth or adoption of a child. This leave is in addition to existing pregnancy-related sick leave and must be paid at the employee’s full annual salary without interrupting seniority, pay progression, or performance awards. The bill applies to all state employees meeting the tenure requirement and becomes effective January 1, 2027. It does not replace current sick leave policies but adds this specific paid leave benefit.

HB 3964: State government employees; stillborn; bereavement pay; effective date.

HB 3964 expands bereavement leave eligibility for Oklahoma state employees by adding "stillborn" to the definition of "relative" under the state leave sharing program. This change directly affects state employees with one year of continuous service who experience the loss of a stillborn child, allowing them to use donated leave for this purpose. The bill modifies existing provisions to include stillborns under "relative" for bereavement leave, alongside other family members, and creates a Leave of Last Resort Bank funded by retiring employees' unused leave. The policy change ensures state employees can access shared leave support for stillbirth-related bereavement without needing to exhaust all other leave options first.

HB 4091: Education; Oklahoma Family Literacy Task Force Act; creating the Oklahoma Family Literacy Task Force to study a comprehensive family literacy strategy; effective date.

HB 4091 creates the Oklahoma Family Literacy Task Force to study and develop a comprehensive strategy for improving family literacy across the state. The Task Force, composed of 12 appointed members representing education, tribal communities, libraries, adult education, and families, will examine existing programs, identify barriers for underserved groups (like low-income and rural families), and review successful models from other states. It must submit a report by December 1, 2027, including a statewide definition of family literacy, an inventory of current services, and policy recommendations for funding and program changes. This report will guide future state efforts to address low literacy rates, which the Task Force will study in relation to poverty, health, and educational outcomes.
