Current through Vol. 41, No. 20, July 1, 2024
Today, I signed into law House Bill 2386 (Bill), which modifies
			 the definition for teacher to be used throughout Title 70. The Bill greatly
			 extends the current definition of teacher. The intent of this Bill is for the
			 Teachers' Retirement System of Oklahoma to clearly define the monetary credit
			 for certain employees listed in the definition of "teacher" against their
			 employee contributions to the Teachers' Retirement System.
As I continue to support a pay raise for classroom teachers, it
			 is my expectation that for the purpose of any future teacher pay increase, the
			 definition of teacher shall be limited to reflect only persons conducting
			 classroom instruction or intervention programs for students. The broad
			 definition created in HB 2386 should only be used when processing benefits for
			 the Teachers' Retirement System of Oklahoma.
I THEREFORE STRONGLY URGE that this definition only be used for
			 the Teachers' Retirement System.
This Executive Order shall be distributed to the Superintendent
			 of Public Instruction and members of the State Board of Education, who shall
			 cause the provisions of this Order to be implemented.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have set my hand and caused the Great Seal
			 of the State of Oklahoma to be affixed at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, this 8th day
			 of June, 2017.

Current through Vol. 41, No. 20, July 1, 2024
Today I signed into law Senate Bill 643 (Bill), which creates
			 substantial new law known as the "Impaired Driving Elimination Act". The Bill
			 appears to authorize the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety (DPS) in specific
			 circumstances to summarily revoke or destroy a driver's license of an
			 individual without a due process hearing. The Oklahoma Supreme Court has
			 determined that, "one's claim to a driver's license is indeed a protectable
			 property interest that may not be terminated without due process guaranteed by
			 the Fourteenth Amendment."
Therefore, in giving effect to Bill I am requiring the DPS to
			 follow directions consistent with the recent Oklahoma Supreme Court Order in
			 Nichols v. State, ex. rel. Dept. of Public Safety, 2017 OK 20. I also direct
			 and order the DPS to grant a hearing on revocation of license in conformity
			 with the due process clause of the Fourteenth Amendment of the United States
			 Constitution, and within the time limits imposed by our Supreme Court. DPS may
			 create an exception to these hearings for any individual that receives a
			 deferred adjudication, a suspended sentence, or a formal conviction under the
			 criminal code.
I, THEREFORE ORDER the Oklahoma State Department of Public
			 Safety to comply with the directions I have given in this Order when
			 instituting Senate Bill 643.
This Executive Order shall be distributed to the Oklahoma
			 Department of Public Safety and to the Secretary of Public Safety, who shall
			 cause the provisions of this Order to be implemented.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have set my hand and caused the Great Seal
			 of the State of Oklahoma to be affixed at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, this 8th day
