Summary: The committee first corrected its action on Senate Bill 151, noting that the earlier motion had been made incorrectly after the committee substitute was amended. Members then moved to do not pass the Senate Finance Committee substitute and do pass the same committee substitute so it could be sent to the floor. The only change identified in the substitute was an adjustment to the sunset date. A roll call vote followed, with several members voting yes and a few voting no or being excused, and the motion to report the committee substitute out with a due pass recommendation carried. After the SB 151 vote, the chair said the committee was essentially finished and expected to meet on the floor the next day, likely around noon, with a plan to come in earlier and handle a few more bills. The discussion then shifted to House Bill 2 and the broader issue of state employee compensation. One member argued that over the past several years the state had already provided substantial pay raises and benefits, citing roughly $1.3 billion in raises, about $184 million annually for health care costs, and $116 million annually for employer pension costs, for a total of about $1.6 billion over four years. That member said the state had done enough on employee compensation and that a proposed 1% increase did not make sense given competing priorities such as child care and other needs. The committee then adjourned, and there was a brief question about when the university fund bill would be heard, but no firm timing was given.

Summary: The House convened, heard the prayer and Pledge of Allegiance, recognized the Doctor of the Day, and held several special presentations, including the Bethany Youth Council and a centennial recognition for Ascension St. John. The chamber then took up a long series of bills on second and third reading, with members asking questions on hospice care, broadband, funeral director continuing education, economic development, court reporters, DUI-related GPS monitoring, banking discrimination, statutory interpretation, electronic filings, intoxicating hemp beverages, homemade food production, youth apprenticeships, domestic violence, school communications with minors, firearms definitions, and outdoor warning sirens. Among the measures considered, House Bill 3645 on hospice referrals for patients without next of kin or a durable power of attorney passed 16-0. House Bill 3649, allowing proceeds from certain state property sales to remain in the mental health real estate trust, passed 15-0. House Bill 2293 extending the Oklahoma Broadband Office sunset to 2030 passed 84-10. House Bill 3216 adding the Oklahoma Funeral Directors Association to approved continuing education providers passed 94-0, and House Bill 3176 directing Commerce to pursue national lab and innovation opportunities passed 51-37 after extensive debate about its aspirational nature and cost. Other bills approved included HB 3177 on Corporation Commission court reporter pay and retention, HB 3114 removing DUI with great bodily harm from DOC GPS monitoring eligibility, HB 3172 restricting adverse banking actions by large financial institutions against lawful activity, HB 3322 on statutory interpretation, HB 3323 removing notarization requirements for electronic Service Oklahoma submissions, HB 4248 restricting certain intoxicating beverages to those 21 and older, HB 3720 expanding the Homemade Food Freedom Act, HB 2210 modernizing youth apprenticeships, HB 1322 creating a domestic violence offender registry, HB 1937 revising school communications with minors and receiving emergency passage, HB 3301 aligning state firearms definitions with federal law, and HB 4107 criminalizing hacking or unauthorized activation of outdoor warning sirens. Most bills passed with broad support, though some drew significant questioning over fiscal impact, public safety, and implementation details.

Summary: The House convened after a quorum call, welcomed visitors in the galleries, and then took up a series of bills. HB 4104, relating to the Sex Offenders Registration Act, was explained as making second or subsequent misdemeanor “peeping tom” offenses a felony and making felony convictions under that statute registrable; it passed 91-0. HB 3722, an elections bill, drew extended debate over whether a voter registration application should be considered incomplete if the applicant leaves party affiliation blank; supporters said the state should not infer intent, while opponents argued the change would create an unnecessary barrier and could disenfranchise voters. The bill passed 75-18. HB 3787, as amended, clarified that any person appointed to fill an unexpired term in an elected office must be a U.S. citizen; it passed 79-13. HB 3700, from the Oklahoma Free Speech Committee, requires colleges and universities to grade students on academic content rather than opinions or beliefs, and it passed with an emergency clause. HB 3701 codifies the Regents’ process for reviewing low-performing degree programs and passed with an emergency clause as well. The House also passed HB 3310 on state government transparency and accountability 94-0, HB 3404 creating a framework for prescribed burn associations and financial relief 89-4, HB 2964 on medical records fees after amendment 92-0, HB 2398 allowing postsecondary institutions to designate credentials of value 70-20, HB 3024 on transparency for state employee pay and bonuses 79-9 with an emergency clause, HB 3499 allowing special judges to hear certain title-issuance cases 84-5, HB 3278 providing corrections for Open Meeting Act violations without going straight to district court 82-4, and HB 3279 updating public corruption rules to address contract and post-employment conflicts 10-? (the transcript indicates passage but the exact final tally is unclear). The session ended with adjournment until Wednesday, March 11, 2026, at 10:30 a.m.

Summary: The Oklahoma Senate convened, the clerk called the roll, and a quorum was declared. The session opened with prayer, followed by a gallery introduction recognizing the Convention of States Organization and related guests in the North Gallery for Capital Freedom Day and the 250th anniversary of the nation. The Senate also granted unanimous consent for an entourage to come to the floor. Senator Bullard presented a citation of valor honoring multiple law enforcement officers from Atoka County, Stringtown, the Oklahoma Highway Patrol, and Tulsa Police Department for their response to a dangerous May 2025 incident involving a high-speed pursuit and armed confrontation. The citation praised their courage, coordination, and actions that helped protect civilians and resolve the situation safely. The Senate extended its gratitude to the officers, and members of law enforcement present were recognized on the floor. Several floor introductions and announcements followed, including recognition of a UCO student intern, Senator Alvord’s mother-in-law, and caucus and committee notices. Announcements included Republican caucus meeting plans, committee meetings for Business and Insurance and Energy, a Diabetes Caucus meeting, a Women’s Caucus social event, and a note that the Senate won the prior day’s blood drive competition. No legislation was debated or voted on, and the Senate adopted a motion to adjourn until Monday, February 9, 2026 at 1:30 p.m.

Summary: The committee held public hearings on several education-related bills. SB 6078 would expand pre-licensing supports for prospective child care providers by directing DCYF and the State Patrol to offer consultations and resource guidance, with testimony from the sponsor, DCYF, and a community nonprofit emphasizing that the bill would reduce fragmented licensing barriers and help open more child care sites. SB 6089 would create a public-private structure to coordinate Washington’s P-20W education and workforce system and develop a public-facing data dashboard; supporters from education, nonprofit, and student groups said it would improve alignment, transparency, and equity, while WEA and OSPI raised concerns about private influence, duplication, and the use of a non-state entity for the dashboard. SB 5859 would expand competency-based assessment options within graduation pathways, with supporters saying it would give students more flexible ways to demonstrate learning, and the State Board of Education and school principals cautioning that the board’s ongoing Future Ready review should finish before new pathway changes are made. SB 5861 would require more school board directors to be elected from director districts in larger districts; supporters argued it would improve community representation, while some districts and WSSDA warned about costs, loss of local control, and implementation burdens. SB 6065 would allow districts in binding conditions or enhanced financial oversight to use transportation vehicle funds for temporary loans or permanent transfers with OSPI approval, and rural district advocates said it could help distressed districts stabilize without new state spending. The committee then moved into executive session and acted on two bills. It adopted the proposed substitute for SB 5956, which limits the use of automated decision systems, surveillance technology, biometric data, and facial recognition in student discipline and school safety decisions, and sent the bill to Rules with a do-pass recommendation. It also adopted the proposed substitute for SB 5901, which changes how state funding is calculated for school construction projects on military bases, and sent that bill to Ways and Means with a do-pass recommendation. Both measures passed subject to signatures.

Summary: The committee heard several measures and adopted PCS versions as working drafts before taking action. H.J.R. 1023, the biennial workers’ compensation fee schedule resolution, was presented as a vehicle to keep the schedule alive while the updated rates were still pending from the federal side due to the shutdown; it passed 8-0. House Bill 2999, which would prohibit requiring public officials to sign nondisclosure agreements, drew discussion about whether it should be broadened to cover litigation outcomes and other government transparency issues. The author agreed to strike the title and continue working on the language, and the bill passed 8-0 with the title stricken. House Bill 3788, as amended in PCS-2, would require officeholders to be U.S. citizens; members questioned whether the bill should also bar non-citizens from certain appointments, with examples raised about local boards and temporary appointments. The author said the intent was to focus on elected office, the Election Board assistant secretary said the bill reflected that intent, and the committee voted 9-1 to report it do pass, with the title still stricken for further work. The committee also advanced House Bill 3499, which allows special judges to hear applications for title matters, on a 10-0 vote. House Bill 3183, described by its author as a cost-saving measure related to electrical transmission infrastructure and protecting ratepayers from large loads, also passed 10-0. Throughout the meeting, members frequently used motions to adopt PCS drafts, move bills, and strike titles where language was still being refined before floor consideration.
