The Oklahoma Independent Education Act aims to protect the values, funding, and independence of public schools, students, parents, and taxpayers in Oklahoma. It prohibits school districts and charter schools from using or being coerced into using any funds to promote or recognize sexual orientation or gender identity. The act emphasizes that public schools should focus on preparing students with fundamental skills in reading, writing, mathematics, observable science, and primary-sourced history and government. Additionally, it mandates the State Department of Education and the State Board of Education to develop a plan to phase out federal funding for pre-kindergarten through twelfth-grade education, replacing it with state funds.

To oversee the implementation of this act, a working group will be established, consisting of appointed members from the Senate, House of Representatives, and the Governor. This group will monitor the act's provisions, submit a report of findings and recommendations, and will not be subject to the Oklahoma Open Meeting Act or the Oklahoma Open Records Act. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and includes an emergency clause for immediate implementation upon passage and approval.
