Maddy summaryHB 4426 creates a state income tax credit for businesses making qualified economic development expenditures in specific Oklahoma locations. It allows eligible businesses to claim up to 10% of qualifying construction, equipment, or infrastructure costs (capped at $6 million per project), or up to 50% for rail infrastructure (capped at $3 million). The credit can be assigned to project affiliates like vendors or investors and carried forward for up to five years, with an annual state cap of $12 million. The bill applies to projects in counties under 100,000 population, industrial parks, economic development zones, or near qualifying railroads, effective November 2026.

Maddy summaryHB 3720, the "Access to Healthy Local Food Act," exempts direct-to-consumer sales of certain locally produced food from state licensing and inspection requirements if producers meet specific conditions. It applies to small-scale farmers selling food like fruits, vegetables, and prepared goods directly to consumers at farms or events, excluding meat, dairy, unpasteurized products, and cannabis. Producers must complete an 8-hour food safety training, provide detailed labeling (including allergen info and exemption notices), and may opt for a $15 annual registration number to simplify labeling. The law ensures counties can still regulate food sales as long as they don’t conflict with these provisions, and the Agriculture Department can enforce compliance with fines up to $300 per violation.

Maddy summaryHB 3372 creates a state-backed loan program to help charter schools fund capital expenses like building repairs or equipment.

The bill removes previous prohibitions on charter schools issuing bonds and requires participants to pay a one-time fee. This directly affects Oklahoma charter schools seeking financing for physical infrastructure, while the state manages repayment and fund operations through specific legislative appropriations.
