OK SCR32

Urges United States Congress to propose the "Regulation Freedom Amendment" to the U.S. Constitution during the 2nd Session of the 55th Oklahoma Legislature (2016).

Proposes that whenever one quarter of members in either the U.S. House or Senate submit written opposition to a proposed federal regulation, a majority vote of both chambers would be required to adopt that regulation.

Asserts that federal regulators lack sufficient accountability to elected representatives and that federal regulatory authority threatens constitutionally-protected liberties under the First, Second, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments.

Argues a constitutional amendment is preferable to statutory measures like the REINS Act because it cannot be repealed or waived by future Congresses and does not require presidential approval.

Directs the Oklahoma Secretary of State to distribute copies of this resolution to the President of the United States, the Governor, and Oklahoma Congressional Delegation members.
