HB 3853 exempts certain school supplies from Oklahoma's sales tax during a specific three-day back-to-school period each year. It applies to items like pencils, notebooks, backpacks, and other classroom essentials priced under $100, purchased between 12:01 a.m. on the first Friday in August and 12 a.m. the following Sunday. The exemption does not cover athletic wear, accessories (e.g., jewelry, wallets), or rentals. This policy change, effective July 1, 2026, aims to reduce costs for families buying qualifying school supplies during that window.
HB 3799 modifies Oklahoma's vehicle title law to allow spouses of borrowers to transfer a vehicle title when an active loan lien exists. Under current rules, licensed operators cannot transfer titles with active liens without lien satisfaction, but this bill adds spouses to the list of eligible transferees under Section 8(a) of the amended law. Specifically, titles may be transferred to a spouse if the lender is notified and the transfer doesn’t affect the lien’s validity, priority, or enforceability. This directly affects married couples where one spouse holds a vehicle loan, streamlining title transfers during events like marriage or divorce without requiring immediate lien payoff.
