Resolution 4, introduced by Prieto, directs the Secretary of State to present a proposed amendment to Section 5 of Article II of the Oklahoma Constitution to the public for approval or rejection. The amendment seeks to modify the existing prohibition on the use of public money for sectarian or religious purposes, specifically narrowing the restriction to only prohibit direct financial support or benefit to religious institutions, leaders, or sects.

The resolution includes a ballot title that outlines the essence of the proposed amendment, which will be presented to voters as a legislative referendum. The ballot will ask whether the public supports the modification of the prohibition on public funds for religious purposes, allowing for a clearer distinction between direct financial support and other forms of assistance that may not be explicitly prohibited. Following the passage of the resolution, copies will be filed with the Secretary of State and the Attorney General.
