The bill amends Section 103 of Title 38 of the Oklahoma Statutes regarding the time allowed for gathering signatures for initiative petitions. It changes the time period for circulators to collect the necessary signatures from forty-five (45) days to ninety (90) days following a determination that the petition is sufficient or after a successful appeal of an insufficient ruling. Additionally, the bill introduces a ten-day protest period after the signature collection deadline, during which challenges to the petition can be made.

The updated language aims to provide petition circulators with more time to gather signatures, thereby potentially increasing the chances of successfully impaneling a grand jury through citizen initiatives. The bill is set to take effect on November 1, 2026.
