Oklahoma SB2153, known as the Judea and Samaria Act, prohibits state agencies from using the term "West Bank" to refer to Judea and Samaria in official government materials or using state funds to create such materials. The executive head of a state agency may waive this prohibition if it is in the state's best interest and provides a written explanation to the Governor, the President Pro Tempore of the Senate, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives within 30 days. The act defines "Judea and Samaria" as the land controlled by Israel from Jordan during the Six-Day War in 1967.
