Bill No. 563 authorizes the board of county commissioners in Oklahoma to develop a policy that allows county employees to receive up to three days of paid administrative leave each calendar year for serving as election officials. This includes roles such as precinct officials and absentee voting board members, as specified in the Oklahoma Statutes. The policy must be created in coordination with the secretary of the county election board, ensuring that employees who are qualified for these positions can participate without financial penalty.

The bill is set to take effect on November 1, 2025, following its passage in the Senate on March 11, 2025. This legislation aims to encourage civic engagement among county employees by facilitating their involvement in the electoral process.
