Bill > SB1724

This bill, titled the "Preserving Oklahoma Values Act of 2026," declares it the policy of Oklahoma to protect its citizens from laws contrary to the state or U.S. Constitutions or "Judeo-Christian Western civilization" values, which are defined to include rights like due process, equal protection, freedom of religion, speech, press, bearing arms, privacy, and marriage as defined by the Oklahoma Constitution. The act states that any court decision or contract provision that relies on or enforces a "foreign law, legal code, or system" (defined as laws from outside the U.S., excluding Native American tribal laws) will be void and unenforceable if it violates these defined Judeo-Christian Western rights and values. However, this provision does not apply to corporations or other legal entities that voluntarily agree to be governed by foreign law, nor does it restrict the free exercise of religion or the right of religious organizations to manage their internal ecclesiastical matters. The bill also includes an emergency clause, meaning it will take effect immediately upon passage.
