Summary:
The committee heard and advanced a series of bills affecting tourism, workforce, economic incentives, labor policy, and housing. Senate Bill 1327 would restore the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Commission’s authority by removing language that made it only advisory and returning hiring/firing power over the executive director to the commission; it passed 10-0. Senate Bill 1403, an Incentive Evaluation Commission recommendation, would require rebate claims to be filed within one year and eliminate a statewide wage threshold for certain job-creation rebates; it also passed 10-0. Senate Bill 1937, the Taxpayer Dollars Protect Workers Act, would make employers in certain incentive programs preserve secret-ballot union elections, protect employee privacy, and bar neutrality agreements tied to incentives; after debate over labor rights and free-market concerns, it passed 8-2.
The committee also advanced Senate Bill 277, a committee-substituted version of the Oklahoma State Paid Family Medical Leave Act. The author said the bill was still a work in progress, but the sub removed exigency and safe leave, narrowed family definitions to legal relationships, and reduced employer notice/signage requirements; it advanced 8-0 with title off. Senate Bill 2131 would require tourism facilities and reservation confirmations to provide information on made-in-Oklahoma products via QR code or printed card, and it passed 8-0. Senate Bill 1749 would let local propane dealers and LP gas installers perform certain food truck inspections, and it passed 8-0.
Additional measures included Senate Bill 1348, which would give the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission enhanced anti-fraud and appeal authority; members raised concerns about broad discretion, but it passed 8-0. Senate Bill 1469 would regulate earned wage access products, including employer-based and consumer-based services, with fee caps and licensing; it passed 7-1. Senate Bill 2018 would require new multifamily residential rental construction of 20 units or more to be assessed at cost for the first two tax years, beginning with 2027 assessments, and it passed 7-1 after debate over tax impacts. Senate Bill 1931 would add three members to the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission and passed 6-2. Senate Bill 1530 would refine the research and development rebate program and add a 2% bump for projects involving higher education institutions, passing 8-0. Senate Bill 2155 would let the Route 66 Commission enter MOUs with other agencies to carry out its work, and it passed 8-0.

Kentucky’s Justice Reinvestment Initiative – Domestic Violence: 00:02:00
Uniform Partition of Heirs Property Act: 00:46:41, 958, all
Summary:
The Interim Joint Committee on Judiciary approved the minutes from its July 24, 2025 meeting and heard an announcement about a lunch sponsored by the Kentucky State Buildings and Trades Council on forming a blue-collar caucus. The main presentation came from the Council of State Governments’ Justice Center on the Kentucky Justice Reinvestment Initiative’s domestic violence work, which was described as a multi-year effort begun in 2023 to analyze data and interview stakeholders across the state.
Presenters reported that domestic violence is widespread in Kentucky, with about half of adults experiencing some form of violence or stalking in their lifetimes, and that an average of about 22,000 IPV incidents occurred annually from 2018 to 2022. They said domestic violence is a major driver of violent crime, accounting for about 48% of person offenses over a six-year period, and is linked to significant shares of homicides, sex crimes, kidnapping, aggravated assault, and simple assault. They also said reported incidents and arrests have risen in recent years, that protective-order violations and convictions have increased, and that Kentucky ranks near the bottom among surrounding states in the share of victim compensation for domestic-violence-related claims. Law enforcement survey results showed strong adoption of model policies and guidance, but limited use of screening tools for serious injury risk.
The presenters emphasized that domestic violence also places heavy demands on law enforcement, courts, and corrections, citing roughly 30,000 law-enforcement responses in 2022 and noting that more than a third of people entering DOC custody and nearly a third under supervision had DV-related histories. They said a small group of repeat offenders drives ongoing harm and that targeted interventions could reduce recidivism. They highlighted a North Carolina example in which focused intervention reduced IPV-related homicides and calls for service, and they referenced Kentucky’s 2020 assessment recommendations on training, language access, protective-order service, and coordination with victim services and batterer intervention providers. They estimated that a 25% reduction in reported DV incidents could prevent nearly 5,000 victimizations annually and reduce DOC commitments and costs substantially.
Committee members asked about the relationship between civil domestic violence petitions and companion criminal cases, and the presenters said they would check whether the data could answer that question. Members also discussed recent Kentucky legislation, including Senate Bill 319 on crime victims compensation and House Bill 38, which made a third domestic violence offense a Class D felony. Several members thanked the presenters and advocates, and one member raised concerns about service of process and recent violent incidents involving domestic violence-related warrants, prompting discussion of dedicated service units in larger jurisdictions and the resource limits faced by smaller agencies.
