Bill > SB1219

This bill appropriates $1.3 million from Oklahoma's General Revenue Fund to the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2027, specifically to provide support to multi-county organizations involved in tourism development. The bill includes an effective date of July 1, 2026, and contains an emergency clause that allows the act to take effect immediately upon passage and approval. The emergency provision suggests that the legislation is considered urgent for preserving public peace, health, or safety, which is a standard legal mechanism to expedite the implementation of certain legislative actions. By allocating funds to multi-county tourism organizations, the bill aims to support regional tourism efforts and potentially enhance economic development across multiple counties in Oklahoma.
