Title

Lawmaker Position

HB 1002 (3rd Special Session)House 20243x

Expanding Economic Growth by Reducing Income Tax Rates by .25%.

Against CEA
This bill reduces the state's income tax rates for each income bracket by .25% for single and married filers, beginning in 2023.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
1 Samuel 8:10-18 – "Samuel told all the words of the Lord to the people who were asking him for a king. He said, 'This is what the king who will reign over you will claim as his rights: He will take your sons and make them serve with his chariots... He will take the best of your fields and vineyards and olive groves and give them to his attendants. He will take a tenth of your grain and of your vintage and give it to his officials and attendants... and you yourselves will become his slaves'"
Leadership Insight
Centralized power always demands sacrifice from the people. God warned Israel that human kings would grow government at the expense of liberty. Limited government protects freedom; expansive government enslaves. Leaders must resist the temptation to control what they should serve.
HB 1449House 20243x

Reducing Frivolous Litigation Under State Non-Discrimination Law by Clarifying the Definition of "Sex" as One's Biological Sex at Birth.

Against CEA
This bill, the "Women's Bill of Rights," establishes a legal definition of "sex" for use in statutes and state code. The bill defines "sex" as "a natural person's biological sex at birth." The bill provides that the state and local governments "shall not be prohibited from establishing distinctions between sexes when such distinctions are substantially related to an important government objective," such as "biology, privacy, safety, or fairness." All individuals - regardless of their sexual identity - should be treated with respect and have the same freedoms, rights and opportunities under the law. This bill helps strengthen safety and privacy in restrooms and locker rooms at educational facilities, prisons and other locations across the state.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 12:58 – "As you are going with your adversary to the magistrate, try hard to be reconciled on the way, or your adversary may drag you off to the judge, and the judge turn you over to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison."
Leadership Insight
Jesus warns against rushing to court - wisdom that protects operational freedom from predatory litigation. Businesses today face adversaries who weaponize lawsuits to extract settlements, destroy reputations, and bankrupt enterprises through legal costs alone. Operational freedom requires tort reform, loser-pays provisions, and protection from frivolous claims that use the courthouse as a tool of extortion rather than justice.
HB 2330House 20241x

Expanding Access to Mental Healthcare by Slightly Reforming the State's Draconian Certificate of Need Laws.

With CEA
This bill repeals the certificate of need requirement for psychiatric and chemical dependency facilities, which prohibited any "psychiatric or chemical dependency facility or unit" unless a certificate was issued. Certificate of need laws prevent individuals from opening or expanding healthcare facilities unless they can prove to the government there is a "need" for the expansion and additional competition.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 14:3-4 – "The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. Who are you to judge someone else's servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall."
Leadership Insight
Paul's protection of conscience applies directly to healthcare freedom. No government or employer has authority to mandate medical treatments, vaccines, or procedures that violate sincere religious or moral conviction. Healthcare freedom means patients and providers can follow conscience in medical decisions without coercion, contempt, or punishment. When healthcare mandates override conscience, they violate the biblical principle that each person is accountable to their own Master.
HB 2872House 20241x

Hiking Health Insurance Premiums by Establishing Minimum Reimbursement Rates for Out-of-Network Ambulance Services and Restricting Cost Sharing.

Against CEA
This bill, the "Out-of-Network Ambulance Service Provider Act," sets minimum allowable reimbursement rates for out-of-network ambulance services under health care benefit plans. Under the bill, the rate is to be set by localities. If a locality does not establish a minimum rate, the rate is equal to 325% of the Medicare rate, or the amount charged by the ambulance service, whichever is less. Additionally, the bill imposes price controls, providing that any cost sharing, such as a deductible, coinsurance, or copayment, may not be greater than for in-network ambulance services.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 14:3-4 – "The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. Who are you to judge someone else's servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall."
Leadership Insight
Paul's protection of conscience applies directly to healthcare freedom. No government or employer has authority to mandate medical treatments, vaccines, or procedures that violate sincere religious or moral conviction. Healthcare freedom means patients and providers can follow conscience in medical decisions without coercion, contempt, or punishment. When healthcare mandates override conscience, they violate the biblical principle that each person is accountable to their own Master.
HB 2975House 20241x

Increasing Food Freedom and Protecting Privacy of Homemade Food Producers Through an Optional Alternative to Listing Personal Information on Product Labels.

With CEA
This bill allows homemade food producers the option of listing a registration number on product labels instead of their name, phone number, and the address where the product was made. The registration number requires a fee of $15 annually.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Leviticus 25:10 – "Consecrate the fiftieth year and proclaim liberty throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It shall be a jubilee for you; each of you is to return to your family property and to your own clan."
Leadership Insight
The Year of Jubilee proclaimed economic liberty - restoration of property, cancellation of debts, and freedom from bondage. Economic freedom follows this biblical pattern: protecting property rights, enabling debt relief through bankruptcy rather than permanent servitude, and ensuring families can rebuild wealth across generations. Government policies that permanently trap families in poverty, extract generational wealth through death taxes, or prevent property ownership contradict Jubilee's vision of economic restoration.
HB 3002House 20241x

Protecting Life by Expanding Battery and Aggravated Assault and Battery to Include an Unborn Child.

Against CEA
This bill amends the definitions of battery and aggravated assault and battery to include unborn children as victims.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Psalm 139:13-16 – "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be."
Leadership Insight
David declares that God forms every person in the womb - a truth that shapes First Freedom's protection of religious pro-life conviction. Believers who hold that life begins at conception must be free to operate hospitals, businesses, and ministries according to this conviction. First Freedom protects religious organizations from being forced to fund, perform, or participate in abortion against their sincere belief that God is the Author of life from conception.
HB 3015House 20241x

Reducing Employment Barriers for Social Workers by Reducing an Unnecessary Experience Mandate for Licensure.

With CEA
This bill reduces the post-graduate experience requirement to be licensed as a social worker, from 2 years of full-time experience to 3,000 hours.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 10:34-35 – "He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. 'Look after him,' he said, 'and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have."
Leadership Insight
The Good Samaritan modeled voluntary service and direct negotiation - he hired the innkeeper personally, set terms himself, and promised fair compensation. Workforce freedom protects this direct relationship between those who need help and those who provide it. When government mandates wages, unions control hiring, or regulations dictate staffing, the voluntary exchange that enabled this compassionate care becomes impossible. Workers and employers must be free to negotiate directly.
HB 3694House 20243x

Strengthening Law and Order by Reducing the Felony Threshold for Shoplifting.

Against CEA
This bill reduces the value threshold of merchandise stolen from stores to be considered a felony, from $1,000 to $500.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 13:1-4 – "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."
Leadership Insight
Government authority is legitimate only when it reflects God's design - to punish evil and reward good. Leaders submit to righteous authority but resist tyranny. Romans 13 is not a blank check for government overreach; it's a framework for godly governance rooted in justice.
HB 3782House 20242x

Strengthening Public Safety by Establishing a Rebuttable Presumption Against Bail for Violent Offenses Committed While on Bond.

Against CEA
This bill establishes a rebuttable presumption against bail for individuals who are arrested for committing a "violent crime," such as murder, kidnapping, or child abuse, while already released on bond for another "violent offense." As ensuring public safety is an important role of government.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 13:1-4 – "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."
Leadership Insight
Government authority is legitimate only when it reflects God's design - to punish evil and reward good. Leaders submit to righteous authority but resist tyranny. Romans 13 is not a blank check for government overreach; it's a framework for godly governance rooted in justice.
HB 3959House 20241x

Expanding Cronyism Through a New Fund to Provide Millions of Dollars to Professional Sports Teams Based on the Number of Employees.

With CEA
This bill, the "Oklahoma Five Major Sports Leagues Rebate Program Act," establishes a fund to provide rebate payments to professional sports teams in the NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, and MLS. Under the bill, a team is eligible to receive up to $10 million annually, based on the number of full-time equivalent employees. A team must have a total payroll of at least $10 million annually and at least 80% of the employees must be full-time equivalent positions, work an average of at least 30 hours per week, and be subject to state income taxes. The rebate payments are funded using income tax revenue.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 11:1 – "The Lord detests dishonest scales, but accurate weights find favor with Him."
Leadership Insight
Integrity in business is not optional - it’s spiritual obedience. Every transaction reflects the character of the Kingdom. Honesty is Heaven’s currency for influence.
HB 4069House 20243x

Strengthening Law and Order by Expanding Credit and Debit Card Fraud to Include Gift Cards.

Against CEA
This bill expands the scope of "False making or embossing of credit or debit card" and includes gift cards by including a "similar card containing a magnetic strip capable of storing data." Additionally, the bill provides that possessing at least three cards "containing cloned or altered data" creates a rebuttable presumption of "intent to defraud." The bill provides that possession of five or fewer cards is punishable by 2-5 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $5,000, with increased penalties for possession of 6-20 cards (5-10 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $10,000) or 20 or more cards (10-20 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $100,000).
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 13:1-4 – "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."
Leadership Insight
Government authority is legitimate only when it reflects God's design - to punish evil and reward good. Leaders submit to righteous authority but resist tyranny. Romans 13 is not a blank check for government overreach; it's a framework for godly governance rooted in justice.
HB 4070 (House Version)House 20241x

Growing Government Central Planning Powers and Interference in the Private Sector Through New County-Level Economic Development Entities.

Against CEA
This bill, the "Rural County Economic Development Act of 2024," allows counties with a population of 100,000 or less to establish "a County Economic Development Organization" to support "economic development programs and initiatives." Such counties may impose a sales tax of up to 0.75% to be used for these purposes, if approved by voters. Lawmakers should not further expand the size and scope of government to engage in "economic development". The free-market - not government central planning - is the best mechanism to foster business growth.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 22:7 – "The rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is slave to the lender."
Leadership Insight
Borrowing beyond purpose is surrendering authority. Debt doesn’t just cost interest - it costs influence. Leaders who manage debt wisely preserve both freedom and dignity.
SB 1155House 20241x

Fueling Wasteful and Out-Of-Control Spending Through $18 Million for the Oklahoma Museum of Popular Culture.

Against CEA
This bill appropriates $18 million to the Oklahoma Historical Society for the Oklahoma Museum of Popular Culture. An additional $18 million must be raised from other sources before the funds may be used. Taxpayers should not be forced to fund wasteful and unnecessary initiatives which do not pertain to the core functions of government.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 14:28-30 – "Suppose one of you wants to build a tower. Won’t you first sit down and estimate the cost to see if you have enough money to complete it?"
Leadership Insight
Vision must meet calculation. God honors leaders who count costs before claiming promises. Stewardship without foresight breeds collapse.
SB 1334House 20241x

Increasing Health Insurance Premiums by Mandating Policies Provide Coverage for Fertility Preservation for Individuals with Cancer.

Against CEA
This bill, "Corinne's Law," requires all health insurance policies offered in the state to provide coverage for "standard fertility preservation services" for individuals with cancer, if a necessary treatment may cause infertility. The bill also prohibits preauthorization requirements for such coverage. The bill does contain a provision allowing religious employers to submit an exemption request. However, each and every health insurance mandate prevents an individual from selecting a plan with just basic or customized coverages to fit their specific needs. As a result, health insurers are forced to only offer costly plans loaded with coverages that most individuals do not need. This can result in lower-income or younger individuals choosing to purchase no insurance plan at all due to the high cost.
OPPOSE is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 14:3-4 – "The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. Who are you to judge someone else's servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall."
Leadership Insight
Paul's protection of conscience applies directly to healthcare freedom. No government or employer has authority to mandate medical treatments, vaccines, or procedures that violate sincere religious or moral conviction. Healthcare freedom means patients and providers can follow conscience in medical decisions without coercion, contempt, or punishment. When healthcare mandates override conscience, they violate the biblical principle that each person is accountable to their own Master.
SB 1854House 20242x

Strengthening Public Safety by Prohibiting Homeless Encampments on State Property.

Against CEA
This bill prohibits any "unauthorized camp" on state property. A warning is issued for the first violation, and a subsequent violation is a misdemeanor punishable by up to 15 days in jail and/or a fine of up to $50. A citation may only be issued if "the person refuses any assistance offered to them by the arresting officer," such as "transportation to a shelter, food pantry, or other place where resources are made available to assist the indigent and homeless." Homeless encampments on sidewalks and streets present many health and safety concerns, including increased crime rates, open drug use, and sanitary concerns.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 13:1-4 – "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."
Leadership Insight
Government authority is legitimate only when it reflects God's design - to punish evil and reward good. Leaders submit to righteous authority but resist tyranny. Romans 13 is not a blank check for government overreach; it's a framework for godly governance rooted in justice.
SB 1877House 20243x

Strengthening Public Safety by Extending the Timeframe for Combining Multiple Retail Theft Offenses.

Against CEA
This bill extends the timeframe in which multiple thefts of merchandise from stores may be combined. Previously, if a person committed theft three or more times within 90 days, the value of the stolen items could be combined to determine the severity of the offense (ex. for a first offense, if the value is $1,000 or more, it is a felony). This bill extends the timeframe to 180 days.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 13:1-4 – "Let everyone be subject to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established. The authorities that exist have been established by God. Consequently, whoever rebels against the authority is rebelling against what God has instituted, and those who do so will bring judgment on themselves."
Leadership Insight
Government authority is legitimate only when it reflects God's design - to punish evil and reward good. Leaders submit to righteous authority but resist tyranny. Romans 13 is not a blank check for government overreach; it's a framework for godly governance rooted in justice.
SB 1994House 20242x

Strengthening Property Rights by Creating New Penalties for Falsifying Real Estate Documents and Establishing a Legal Process for Property Owners to Remove Squatters.

Against CEA
This bill strengthens property rights by allowing homeowners to have an unauthorized individual removed by law enforcement from their property if the homeowner provides a sworn affidavit. Additionally, the bill creates penalties for falsifying real estate documents claiming to be a lease agreement or deed. The bill also criminalizes unlawfully occupying a home and intentionally causing $1,000 or more in damage, if the person is removed through the provisions in the bill. Support is the ACI's position based on the cornerstone of Community.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 21:15 – "When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers."
Leadership Insight
Justice is not neutral - it rewards righteousness and confronts evil. Leaders who execute justice faithfully create cultures where virtue thrives and corruption fears. Moral clarity strengthens societies; moral ambiguity weakens them.
SB 426House 20241x

Protecting Individual Liberties and Reducing Government Overreach by Declaring that United Nations, World Health Organization, and World Economic Forum Mandates Are Unenforceable in the State.

Against CEA
This bill declares that "The World Health Organization, the United Nations, and the World Economic Forum have no jurisdiction in this state" and that "requirements or mandates issued by" those groups may not serve as the "basis for action" or be used to impose requirements that violate state law, such as those related to "masks, vaccines, or medical testing."
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Romans 14:3-4 – "The one who eats everything must not treat with contempt the one who does not, and the one who does not eat everything must not judge the one who does, for God has accepted them. Who are you to judge someone else's servant? To their own master, servants stand or fall."
Leadership Insight

No government or employer has authority to mandate medical treatments, vaccines, or procedures that violate sincere religious or moral conviction. Healthcare freedom means patients and providers can follow conscience in medical decisions without coercion, contempt, or punishment. When healthcare mandates override conscience, they violate the biblical principle that each person is accountable to their own Master.
SB 538House 20241x

Protecting Life by Expanding Pro-Life Grants Under the "Choosing Childbirth Act".

Against CEA
This bill amends the "Choosing Childbirth Act," which provides funds to a "grant-supervising entity" that provides grants to organizations for pro-life services, such as healthcare services for women and infants. This bill allows the Department of Health to now also provide grants "both directly to the private organizations and to one or more grant-supervising entities." The bill also expands the eligible uses of grant funds to include additional services, such as ultrasounds and mental healthcare, and provides that postpartum services to reduce mortality rates extend for 3 years postpartum.
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Psalm 139:13-16 – "For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well. My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place, when I was woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed body; all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be."
Leadership Insight

Believers who hold that life begins at conception must be free to operate hospitals, businesses, and ministries according to this conviction. First Freedom protects religious organizations from being forced to fund, perform, or participate in abortion against their sincere belief that God is the Author of life from conception.
SB 721House 20242x

Strengthening Self-Defense and Second Amendment Rights by Slightly Reducing Handgun License Training and Instructor Requirements.

Against CEA
This bill slightly reduces the requirements for handgun license training courses and instructor qualifications. Under the bill, license applicants are no longer required to use the specific type of pistol they intend to carry "to demonstrate competence and qualification." Additionally, the bill provides that instructors who complete training are qualified to provide instruction on "pistols" rather than specifically "revolvers, semiautomatic pistols, or both." License applicants who complete training are also qualified "with a pistol" rather than specifically "either a derringer, a revolver, a semiautomatic pistol or any combination of a derringer, a revolver and a semiautomatic pistol." The bill also expands the training course exemption for honorably discharged veterans by removing the limitations that the exemption only applied within 20 years of discharge and if the veteran "has been trained and qualified in the use of handguns." Finally, the bill eliminates existing law that prohibited individuals who were "exempt from training or qualification" from carrying a handgun until they received a license or if they carried "a valid military identification card."
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Luke 22:36 – "He said to them, 'But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.'"
Leadership Insight
Jesus affirms the right to self-defense. Preparedness is not paranoia - it's stewardship of safety. Leaders who defend the Second Amendment defend the biblical principle that protection is both a right and a responsibility. Security begins with the citizen, not the state.
SB 859House 20242x

Strengthening Public Safety by Increasing Penalties for Theft of a Firearm and Other Grand Larceny.

Against CEA
This bill increases the maximum penalties for grand larceny of a firearm, property "taken from the person of another," and if property has a value of between $1,000-$2,499. Under the bill, the maximum sentence is increased to 5 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $2,500 (previously up to 2 years in prison and/or a fine of up to $1,000).
SUPPORT is the CEA Position, based on:
Proverbs 21:15 – "When justice is done, it brings joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers."
Leadership Insight
Justice is not neutral - it rewards righteousness and confronts evil. Leaders who execute justice faithfully create cultures where virtue thrives and corruption fears. Moral clarity strengthens societies; moral ambiguity weakens them.
