AI Summary

This bill amends existing Oklahoma sales tax law to provide a sales tax exemption for certain retired law enforcement officers. To qualify for this exemption, individuals must have retired from a municipal police force or county sheriff's office after serving until they were eligible for full retirement benefits. They will need to apply to the Oklahoma Tax Commission, which will verify their eligibility using retirement documents. Upon verification, the Commission will issue an exemption card valid for three years, and individuals can reapply before it expires. The bill also specifies that the Oklahoma Tax Commission is authorized to create necessary rules and forms to implement this exemption.
