Oklahoma Open Meeting Act; requiring the Legislature to allow audio and video recording of public meetings. Effective date.

SB 1883 amends Oklahoma's Open Meeting Act to require the state Legislature to permit audio and video recording of all public legislative meetings. This directly affects attendees, journalists, and the public who currently observe legislative sessions. The key provision explicitly states the Legislature "shall not prevent any person" from recording meetings, removing any barriers to such recordings. The bill takes effect on November 1, 2026, and applies to all legislative sessions conducted under the Open Meeting Act.
