HJR 1007 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Oklahoma Constitution; amendments to Oklahoma Constitution; passage; voting requirement; ballot title; filing.

HJR 1007 proposes amending Oklahoma's Constitution to require a three-fourths (3/4) vote in both legislative chambers to advance a constitutional amendment to a voter referendum, raising the current threshold from a simple majority. This change directly affects the Oklahoma Legislature, as it would make it more difficult to pass constitutional amendments by requiring broader support during the legislative process. The bill also specifies the ballot title voters would see, explaining that the measure would increase the legislative vote requirement for constitutional amendments. The proposed amendment would not change the voter approval threshold (which remains a majority of votes cast).
