HB 2218 creates a state tax rebate program to support local music performances in Oklahoma. It provides rebates on sales tax or drink sales tax collected by venues during eligible events, capped at $10 million annually. To qualify, events must feature Oklahoma-based performers (individuals or businesses owned by Oklahomans) for at least 30 minutes, with venues paying performers at least $100 per event. The rebate limits are $2,000 per event and $50,000 per venue yearly, applying to both ticketed and unticketed venues that sell taxable goods or drinks.
HB 2917 creates the "Ag in the Classroom Program" under Oklahoma's State Department of Agriculture to educate students (pre-K through 12th grade) about agriculture in both urban and rural schools. It increases the fee for Agricultural Awareness license plates from $24 to $27, directing the extra $3 per plate into an Ag in the Classroom Education Revolving Fund. The fund will support program expansion, particularly into urban areas, with the Department of Agriculture having exclusive control over the program and fund spending. This bill takes effect November 1, 2025.
