Summary: The House opened with prayer, the Pledge of Allegiance, and a series of special presentations and introductions celebrating Oklahoma State University, the Cowgirl Wrestling Club, the OSU livestock judging team, military children, poster contest winners, and several visiting groups and honorees. The chamber also recognized the Doctor of the Day, Dr. Kurt Emerson, and the Nurse of the Day, Beverly Felton. Much of the floor time was devoted to OSU Day remarks, including a citation honoring the university and comments from Speaker Hilbert, Coach Eric Morris, and President Jim Hess. The House then took up Senate Bill 2074, a pharmacy benefit manager measure intended to regulate PBMs and support pharmacists. An amendment by Representative Jenkins to remove a section of the bill was tabled, and members questioned the bill extensively about reimbursement rates, consumer costs, employer options, transparency, and the impact on independent pharmacies. After debate, the bill advanced and passed the House by a vote of 87-7. Members also considered Senate Joint Resolution 39, which would place a constitutional amendment on the ballot to cap property tax growth. The measure, as amended, would set a 1.75% annual cap on homestead property tax growth and a 4% cap on other properties, with a stair-step senior freeze. The resolution drew debate over effects on local government revenue, schools, roads, jails, and inflation, but supporters argued it would provide strong taxpayer protections. The House passed the resolution 85-9 and then took the additional vote required to refer the constitutional amendment to a special election.

Summary: The committee opened with prayer and then heard a long series of Senate bills, many of them agency request or cleanup measures. Early bills included SB 1983, directing DHS to provide foster care data to resource family partners to better identify foster family needs; SB 444, allowing hospice personnel to control or destroy controlled substances after a patient’s death; and SB 1503, a PCS related to pregnancy resource center outreach and in-state referrals, which drew discussion about virtual versus face-to-face support and was reported out after members agreed to continue working on the language. Other measures advanced included SB 1561 on progressive discipline for certain M.T.M.S. personnel, SB 592 and SB 1946 on alcohol-related licensing/sales issues, SB 1501 and SB 1567 as cleanup or implementation bills, and SB 1833 codifying a SNAP waiver barring candy and soft drinks purchases. The committee also considered several health and human services bills. SB 2026 expanded access to military discharge papers to grandchildren; SB 904 addressed public funds and state facilities, with members raising concerns about legislative interference in medical decision-making and liability; SB 2178 modified alcohol licensing insurance requirements; SB 1651 updated Oklahoma Medical Board license language; SB 1558 clarified the definition of a child for level E group homes; SB 1565 promoted Food is Medicine efforts to improve maternal and infant outcomes; and SB 1553 required psychologist review of appealed adverse determinations involving mental health claims. SB 1257, with a policy recommendation, expanded THC/controlled substance language to align with federal guidelines, and SB 1749 made a cleanup change related to food trailers and LP gas inspections. Later in the meeting, the committee advanced SB 65 with a policy amendment adding fentanyl and xylazine test strips; SB 1242, which included OMMA education and abandoned grow cleanup provisions; SB 1642, allowing shorter acute prescriptions to help reduce addiction risk; SB 640, treating abandoned grow facilities as public nuisances so local governments can abate them; SB 667, clarifying accreditation language for chiropractic programs; SB 1436, requiring hospitals to provide information on obtaining records after stillbirth or miscarriage; SB 1484, codifying medical examiner practices in infant or child deaths; SB 1562, addressing hospice patient solicitation; SB 1794, creating a mental health bed-availability database; SB 1644, seeking data on alpha-gal syndrome to support federal research funding; SB 1533, ensuring burial assistance for Oklahoma veterans who die out of state; SB 933, creating a right-to-try pathway for individualized treatments; and SB 1555, aligning the definition of intellectual disability with federal law. Most bills were reported out do pass, with recorded votes ranging from unanimous to a few nays on some measures. SB 1304 was laid over, and the committee adjourned at the end of the meeting.

  • This bill will provide just an initial distribution of grant funding to help nonprofits stabilize operations

  • or billions of times an hour whether or not an image is AI-created.
  • But under the bill there is no enforcement of whether the tech company or operator is the state of Washington
Summary: The committee first heard House Bill 2073, which would require nonprofit health carriers with surplus above 600% of risk-based capital to pay 3% of the excess to support the Cascade Care Savings premium assistance account. Committee staff said the bill could generate about $80 million in FY 2027, while OIC costs would cover rulemaking and hearings. Supporters argued the bill would redirect excess consumer premium dollars to help people afford coverage, while opponents from nonprofit health plans and business groups said the reserves are needed for claims, market stability, and to weather downturns, and warned the bill could raise costs or destabilize coverage. The bill then moved to public hearing only, with no action taken. The committee also heard Second Substitute House Bill 2132, which limits disclosure and retention of personally identifying and financial information in WASFA applications. Staff explained the bill would exempt WASFA records from public disclosure, restrict sharing except for limited purposes, and shorten retention to one year after the award year, but could create significant purge and systems costs for WSAC and colleges. The sponsor and student advocates said the measure is needed to protect student privacy and encourage aid applications, especially for vulnerable and undocumented students. No opposition was heard, and the bill remained in hearing. House Bill 2403, which reduces the penalty for failure to register as a sex offender, adds community custody and DOC support, and requires a review of registration policies, drew testimony in strong support. Staff said the bill would produce DOC savings and modest one-time costs for court and law-enforcement updates. Testifiers said the measure had broad consensus among criminal justice stakeholders and would better address the practical reasons people fail to register. The committee also heard House Bill 2587, creating a Commerce pilot to provide advance grant funds to eligible nonprofits, and House Bill 2607, which would periodically rebase child care subsidy rate regions; both drew support from nonprofit and child care providers, with staff describing indeterminate or moderate fiscal impacts. In executive session, the committee considered several amendments and then advanced multiple bills. For Second Substitute House Bill 1170 on generative AI disclosures, all proposed amendments were rejected, and the bill passed the committee 18-9. Substitute House Bill 1570, limited by amendment to Western Washington University student employees, also passed. Proposed Third Substitute House Bill 1710, which creates a state preclearance process under the Voting Rights Act for certain jurisdictions with prior voting-rights violations, had one fiscal amendment adopted and then passed. The committee also received amendment briefings on House Bills 1750, 1833, and 1834, but the transcript ends before final action on those measures.
