Bill > HB2779

This bill directs the Department of Public Safety to allocate $750,000 from funds appropriated in a previous legislative bill (Enrolled House Bill No. 2766) specifically for the School Secure Program, which is being transferred from the State Board of Education to the Department of Public Safety. The legislation has two key effective dates: it will become officially effective on July 1, 2025, and it also contains an emergency clause that allows the act to take effect immediately upon passage and approval. The emergency provision suggests that the lawmakers consider the bill's implementation urgent and necessary for public safety, health, or peace. The bill is not intended to be codified in the permanent Oklahoma Statutes, meaning it appears to be a specific, targeted funding allocation rather than a broader change to existing law. The bill was passed by the House of Representatives on May 20, 2025, and by the Senate on May 22, 2025, following the standard legislative process for enactment.
