HB2172

Oklahoma HB2172 extends the sunset of the Oklahoma Funeral Board until July 1, 2029.

Oklahoma HB2172 amends the Oklahoma Sunset Law to extend the sunset of the Oklahoma Funeral Board until July 1, 2029. The Board, consisting of seven members appointed by the Governor, includes five members with at least seven years of experience in embalming and funeral directing. The Board's role is to regulate funeral services in Oklahoma, ensuring compliance with licensing requirements. The bill also mandates that two members should not be licensed funeral directors or embalmers and must be from the general public, with one ideally from the health care field.
