OK HB4287

Oklahoma Department of Corrections must maintain electronic records for all inmates including last-known address, race/ethnicity, Hispanic/Latino origin, and whether 18 years or older

During Federal Decennial Census years, the Department must transmit anonymized inmate data to the Oklahoma State Data Center, which will also request equivalent data from federal correctional facilities in Oklahoma

Oklahoma State Data Center must prepare adjusted redistricting population data that reallocates incarcerated persons to their last-known Oklahoma address rather than counting them at the prison location

Oklahoma Legislative Apportionment Commission and all political subdivisions must use the adjusted data when drawing state legislative, congressional, and local government districts

Incarcerated persons with unknown addresses or last-known addresses outside Oklahoma are excluded from local population totals; adjusted data must be published within 30 days of receiving federal census data and cannot be used for state or federal funding allocation
