AI Summary

This joint resolution directs the Oklahoma Secretary of State to present a proposed amendment to the state Constitution to voters for their approval or rejection. This amendment would allow Oklahoma to opt out of covering the costs associated with Medicaid expansion if the federal government's matching funds for this expansion drop below 90%. Medicaid is a government health insurance program for low-income individuals and families, and "federal financial participation" refers to the portion of program costs that the federal government covers. The resolution also specifies the exact wording for the ballot title that voters will see when deciding on this amendment.
