OK HB4320

Requires all Oklahoma state agencies to conduct a comprehensive review of existing permanent rules and reduce their total rule count by at least 25% within two years of the November 1, 2026 effective date

Agencies must identify rules that are obsolete, duplicative, ineffective, unnecessary, or unduly burdensome, with a baseline target of retaining no more than 75% of current rules

Rules promulgated with express, specific statutory authority may be excluded from the reduction requirement and total rule count

Agencies must submit annual compliance reports to the Governor, Speaker of the House, President Pro Tempore of the Senate, and Legislative Administrative Rules Committees detailing rule counts, repealed rules, and justifications for retaining major rules

Non-compliant agencies will be prohibited from promulgating any new permanent rules until the Legislature provides further notice
