House Bill No. 2104 proposes extensive amendments to various sections of Oklahoma law, primarily aimed at establishing new felony classifications and enhancing penalties for a wide range of offenses. The bill introduces classifications such as "Class D1" and "Class D3" felonies for offenses including but not limited to food stamp trafficking, impersonating military personnel, and violations related to public construction contracts. Specific penalties for these offenses include imprisonment and fines, with the severity of the punishment reflecting the nature of the crime. Additionally, the bill emphasizes accountability and compliance within public agencies, particularly regarding the handling of vital records and the operation of alcoholic beverage businesses.
The legislation also addresses issues related to environmental protection, animal welfare, and the regulation of tobacco products, introducing stricter penalties for violations in these areas. For instance, it establishes penalties for the unlawful transport of livestock and contraband tobacco products, classifying repeat offenses as Class D3 felonies. Furthermore, the bill mandates that certain violations, such as making false statements in sworn affidavits or engaging in fraudulent activities concerning public assistance programs, will also be classified as Class D3 felonies. Overall, House Bill No. 2104 aims to strengthen Oklahoma's legal framework by ensuring that serious offenses are met with appropriate legal responses, thereby enhancing public safety and accountability across various sectors.
