Int Text

Oklahoma SJR55 proposes to repeal Medicaid expansion provisions from the state constitution and move them to state statutes.

Oklahoma SJR55 seeks to amend the state constitution by repealing Sections 1, 2, 3, and 4 of Article XXV-A, which pertain to Medicaid expansion. These repealed provisions would then be codified into state statutes, allowing for easier amendment, repeal, or modification by the Oklahoma Legislature. The bill also defines terms such as "low-income adults," "medical assistance," and "Oklahoma Health Care Authority." The Secretary of State will refer this amendment to the people for approval or rejection.
