Rep. Chris Kannady

Maddy summaryHB 4251 is a procedural bill that names the "Oklahoma Agriculture Act of 2026" and sets its effective date. It does not create new policies or affect any specific group; it solely establishes the act's name and specifies that it will take effect on November 1, 2026. The bill is non-codified, meaning it will not be included in Oklahoma's official statutes. This is a routine naming and scheduling measure with no substantive policy changes.

Maddy summaryHB 4257 is a procedural bill that names the "Oklahoma Professions and Occupations Act of 2026" without creating new regulations or changing existing laws. It specifies the act's effective date as November 1, 2026, and clarifies it will not be codified into Oklahoma Statutes. This bill does not affect any professions, occupations, or individuals, as it serves only as a formal title for future legislative work. No substantive policy changes or mechanisms are included.

Maddy summaryHB 4238 (introduced by Rep. Kannady) creates a noncodified "Oklahoma Crimes and Punishments Act of 2026" that will not be included in Oklahoma's official statutes. The bill solely establishes the act's name and sets its effective date as November 1, 2026. It does not change any existing criminal laws or create new penalties; it only provides a naming convention for future legislative actions. This procedural bill affects how future crime-related legislation may be referenced but does not alter current legal standards.

Maddy summaryHB 4242 is a procedural bill that names the "Oklahoma Public Safety Act of 2026" and sets its effective date for November 1, 2026. It contains no substantive policy provisions or mechanisms, as it is explicitly stated to be "noncodification" (not added to Oklahoma Statutes). The bill directly affects no individuals or entities, as it serves only to establish a name and effective date for a future public safety law. This is a standard naming resolution with no policy changes or direct impacts.

Maddy summaryThis bill (HB 4245) is a procedural measure that creates a named legislative act called the "Environment and Natural Resources Efficiency Act of 2026" and sets its effective date as November 1, 2026. It does not describe any specific policy provisions, regulations, or mechanisms affecting environmental or natural resource management. The bill serves only to establish the act's title and effective date without outlining concrete policy changes. As a naming act with no substantive content provided in the text, it directly affects no specific groups or entities beyond formal legislative naming.

Maddy summaryHB 4232 names the "Oklahoma Revenue and Taxation Act of 2026" for administrative purposes and sets its effective date as November 1, 2026. This is a procedural bill that does not change tax rates, policies, or directly affect any taxpayers. It simply establishes the official name for future tax-related legislation and specifies when it takes effect. The bill has been introduced but has not yet progressed beyond committee referral.

Maddy summaryHB 4249 establishes the Oklahoma Trusts and Pools Act of 2026, which will become effective on November 1, 2026. The bill creates a new legal framework for managing oil and gas trusts and pools in Oklahoma without adding the text to the state's official statutes. This legislation primarily affects landowners, mineral rights holders, and energy companies involved in resource extraction within the state. The bill does not change existing operational rules but provides a formal name and citation for future trust and pool management activities.

Maddy summaryThis bill, known as the Oklahoma Civil Procedure Reform Act of 2026, establishes the name and citation for a future set of civil procedure reforms but does not currently contain any specific policy changes or operational provisions. The legislation only sets the effective date of November 1, 2026, and designates the act for noncodification in the Oklahoma Statutes. It does not directly affect individuals or businesses at this time, as it serves as a procedural framework for future reforms rather than implementing substantive changes to civil court processes.

Maddy summaryHB 4239 is a procedural bill that establishes the name "Oklahoma Crimes and Punishments Act of 2026" for future criminal law provisions, but explicitly states these provisions will not be codified in Oklahoma Statutes. The bill sets an effective date of November 1, 2026, for the naming convention. It does not create or change any criminal laws, penalties, or legal mechanisms - its sole purpose is to provide a title for non-codified future legislation. As a naming act with no substantive policy changes, it directly affects only the administrative designation of future criminal law documents.

Maddy summaryThis bill formally names the "Oklahoma Agriculture Act of 2026" and sets its effective date as November 1, 2026. It contains no substantive policy provisions or changes to agricultural laws. The bill serves only as a naming and effective date designation, with no direct impact on farmers, ranchers, or agricultural regulations. As a procedural measure, it does not alter existing statutes or affect any stakeholders.
