Bill > SB69

This bill designates a section of State Highway 102 in Lincoln County, Oklahoma, as the "SFC Tomas L. Avey Bronze Star and Purple Heart Recipient Memorial Highway" in honor of a military service member. The specific highway segment begins at the intersection of East 990 Road and extends north to the intersection of East Memorial Road. The Oklahoma Department of Transportation is required to install permanent markers displaying the memorial highway's name along the designated route. The bill will become effective on November 1, 2025, and appears to be a way to recognize and commemorate the military service and sacrifices of Sergeant First Class (SFC) Tomas L. Avey, who was awarded both the Bronze Star and Purple Heart, which are prestigious military decorations typically given for heroic achievement or valor in combat and for being wounded in combat, respectively.
