Resolution 1055 proposes an amendment to the Oklahoma Constitution that would change the State Superintendent of Public Instruction from an elected to an appointed position. The resolution outlines a process for the appointment, which involves the Speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives providing a list of six nominees to the Governor, who will then select one nominee for the position. The Oklahoma State Senate will have the authority to confirm the Governor's appointee, requiring a two-thirds vote for confirmation. If the Senate does not confirm the appointee, the Governor must choose a new nominee from the original list. This change would take effect on November 1, 2034.

Additionally, the resolution establishes a process for the removal of the State Superintendent, which can occur through a two-thirds vote from both chambers of the Legislature or by the Governor's order combined with a two-thirds vote from one chamber. The proposed amendment aims to enhance accountability and oversight of the position while allowing for a structured appointment and removal process. The resolution directs the Secretary of State to present this amendment to the public for approval or rejection in a future election.
