HB 1909 creates the Oklahoma Youth Advisory Council, a 53-member body representing Oklahoma youth aged 14-19. The Council consists of 48 members appointed by state Senators (one per district) and 5 at-large members representing federally recognized tribal governments. Its core duty is to advise elected officials on youth-related issues - including education, health, and economic opportunity - by making recommendations to the legislature and reporting annually to a Review Committee. The bill establishes specific membership qualifications, a public meeting schedule (at least four times yearly), and requires the Council to collaborate with existing youth groups to shape policy input.
