Boards and commissions; repealing certain boards and commissions. Emergency.
SB 1639 repeals several Oklahoma state boards and commissions, including the Oklahoma Capital Investment Board, the Joint Legislative Committee for Adolescent Pregnancy Prevention, the School Finance Review Commission, and the Oklahoma Advisory Council on Indian Education. It also removes references to these entities from related statutes, such as those governing venture capital tax credits (68 O.S. 2357.7) and school finance (70 O.S. 3-171-3-173). The bill makes minor editorial updates to statutory language but does not change existing tax credit programs or create new policies. This is a procedural repeal targeting outdated administrative structures, effective immediately under an emergency declaration.
