The bill establishes the Rethinking Paying Subminimal Wage to Persons with Disabilities Task Force, which will operate until May 31, 2026. The Task Force is tasked with studying and developing a plan to phase out the practice of paying workers with disabilities subminimum wages under 14(c) certificate programs in Oklahoma. It aims to transition these workers to competitive, integrated employment at or above minimum wage, while also considering alternative meaningful day programs for those who may not wish to or be able to transition. The Task Force will identify potential obstacles, develop a phased-out plan, and establish a timeline for implementation.

The Task Force will consist of twenty members, including representatives from various state departments, community organizations, and self-advocates. Co-chaired by a member of the House of Representatives and a member of the Senate, the Task Force will meet as needed and is required to submit a final report by January 1, 2026. Members will not receive compensation but may be reimbursed for travel expenses if private funds are available. The bill is set to take effect on November 1, 2025.
