  • OKLAHOMA CONSTITUTION ARTICLE V - LEGISLATIVE DEPARTMENT SECTION V-1

    Oklahoma City, OK
    Other

    Article V, Section V-1 through V-4 of the Oklahoma Constitution establishes the state's legislative authority in a bicameral Legislature (Senate and House of Representatives) while reserving to the people the powers of initiative and referendum. The initiative requires petition signatures from eight percent of legal voters to propose legislative measures and fifteen percent to propose constitutional amendments, with petition percentages calculated based on votes cast for Governor in the last general election. The referendum can be ordered by five percent of legal voters or by the Legislature itself, except for laws necessary for immediate public peace, health, or safety. Referendum petitions must be filed with the Secretary of State within ninety days after final adjournment of the legislative session that passed the bill in question, and measures referred to voters take effect upon approval by a simple majority vote, exempt from gubernatorial veto.
