This bill proposes a salary increase of nine percent (9%) for certain state employees who are in full-time status as of June 30, 2026, effective July 1, 2026. However, the bill specifies that this salary increase will not apply to employees of the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education or any college or university within The Oklahoma State System of Higher Education, nor to employees of common school districts.
Additionally, the bill includes a declaration of emergency, allowing it to take effect immediately upon passage and approval. The provisions of this act will not be codified in the Oklahoma Statutes, indicating that it is intended as a temporary measure rather than a permanent change to existing law.
