HB 2646 eliminates a limitation on taxpayers deducting wagering income when calculating Oklahoma taxable income, directly affecting individuals and businesses claiming such deductions. The bill amends Oklahoma Statute 68 O.S. § 2358 to allow full itemization of wagering income without prior restrictions. It also updates statutory references and adjusts tax year calculations for net operating losses. The bill was referred to the Governor but received a pocket veto on June 15, 2025, meaning it did not become law.

MINOR
The bill text was converted from the House floor version to the Senate floor version, incorporating amendments made during the legislative process. The substantive policy content regarding tax adjustments remains largely consistent, though the Senate version adds specific language clarifying how capital gains from publicly traded partnerships are treated as part of apportionable income for unitary businesses.
Scope change
The scope of the bill's applicability remains focused on Oklahoma tax law adjustments for corporations and individuals; however, the Senate version introduces a new rule regarding the allocation of gains from publicly traded partnerships.
DEFINITION
Added a specific provision stating that capital or ordinary gains/losses from selling an ownership interest in a publicly traded partnership must be included in apportionable income for unitary businesses.
TECHNICAL
Updated document headers, session dates, and sponsor attribution to reflect the Senate floor version and committee amendments.
Adjusted formatting and line breaks to match the Senate's markup style while preserving the core legislative text.
