SJR 20 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Joint resolution; disapproving in whole certain subject matter standards.

SJR 20 is a legislative resolution disapproving all social studies and science subject matter standards approved by Oklahoma's State Board of Education on February 27, 2025. It directly affects the State Board of Education, public school districts, and the Oklahoma Department of Education by reversing their adoption of these standards. The resolution cites concerns about process transparency (including late distribution of standards to new board members) and the $33 million cost to implement new curriculum and textbooks. It directs the Secretary of State to distribute the resolution to the Governor, State Department of Education, and "The Oklahoma Register."
