HCR 1001 is a non-binding legislative resolution opposing an 18-mile wide energy corridor proposed by private companies for transmission lines, wind turbines, and solar farms. It directly affects Oklahoma landowners who might face forced property seizure (condemnation) to accommodate these projects. The resolution commits the Oklahoma House and Senate to take all available legislative action to prevent such corridors and protect private property rights from being impaired by energy infrastructure. As a concurrent resolution, it does not create law but signals legislative opposition to projects requiring eminent domain.
This bill establishes a formal review process for state agency rules. The Legislative Division will assess proposed permanent rules against four criteria: whether they align with the Oklahoma Constitution, fulfill legislative intent, avoid disproportionate negative impacts, and fall within the agency’s legal authority. The Division must issue a report with its findings and legislative recommendations to key legislative leaders and committees. This procedural bill directly affects state agencies creating rules and the legislature overseeing rulemaking, but does not change any substantive laws.
HR 1001 is a procedural resolution establishing the Oklahoma House of Representatives' internal governance rules. It creates a 11-member Governance Committee to oversee House operations, with membership based on partisan caucus size and geographic representation across Oklahoma's five congressional districts. The committee sets committee assignments, refers bills, manages House staff (including the Clerk and Parliamentarian), and approves the annual operating budget. This resolution directly affects all House members and staff by defining how the chamber organizes its work and procedures.
This bill (HCR 1002) cancels all previous applications by Oklahoma's legislature to call a constitutional convention under Article V of the U.S. Constitution. It formally rescinds every past Oklahoma request - whether for a limited convention on specific amendments or a general convention - regardless of when or how it was submitted. The resolution also urges other states with similar applications to withdraw their requests. It directs Oklahoma officials to send copies of this resolution to state and federal leaders, including Congress and the U.S. Supreme Court. This is a procedural action that removes Oklahoma’s historical position on convening a constitutional convention.

The act is uncodified, meaning it won't be included in the state's official statutes. The bill was introduced on February 3, 2025, by Representative Pittman.
HR 1001 is a procedural resolution establishing the Oklahoma House of Representatives' internal governance structure. It creates a 11-member Governance Committee to oversee House operations, with membership based on partisan caucus size (minimum 10 members per caucus) and geographic balance across the state's five congressional districts. The committee will manage office assignments, maintain decorum, appoint key officers (like Clerk, Parliamentarian, and Sergeant at Arms), and propose committee structures. This resolution affects only House members and staff by changing how the chamber organizes its internal procedures, not public policy or constituents.
This Oklahoma House Concurrent Resolution (HCR 1002) formally rescinds all past applications by the state legislature to Congress for an Article V constitutional convention - whether for specific amendments or a general convention. It directs Oklahoma to withdraw all such requests, regardless of when they were made, and urges other states with similar applications to do the same. The resolution transmits copies to federal officials, state legislatures, and Oklahoma's congressional delegation, but does not create new laws or alter state policy. (Procedural resolution; summary limited to 3 sentences as requested.)
This concurrent resolution (HCR 1001) expresses the Oklahoma House and Senate's commitment to oppose any proposed energy corridor that would require the forced taking of private property for energy infrastructure. It specifically targets an 18-mile-wide corridor planned for electric transmission lines, wind turbines, and solar farms, which would use condemnation to acquire land from property owners. The resolution pledges legislative action to prevent such corridors and protect landowners' rights to use their property without interference from infrastructure easements or facilities.
