Bill Summary

An Act relating to state employee compensation; providing for salary increase for certain state employees; specifying certain employees not eligible for salary increase; providing for noncodification; providing an effective date; and declaring an emergency.

AI Summary

This bill provides for a 9% salary increase for most state employees, effective July 1, 2026. Specifically, the salary increase will apply to all full-time state employees who were employed as of June 30, 2026, with two notable exceptions: employees of the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, including those working at colleges and universities within the Oklahoma State System of Higher Education, and employees of common school districts are not eligible for this salary increase. The bill includes an emergency clause, which means it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval, and is justified as necessary for preserving public peace, health, or safety. The effective date for the actual salary increase is set for July 1, 2026, giving state agencies time to prepare for and implement the wage adjustment.
