Oklahoma Public Benefit Integrity and Anti-Smuggling Cooperation Act
Summary
This bill would require Oklahoma agencies and state contractors, where federal law allows, to verify lawful presence or work authorization for certain state benefits and job-related assistance, while exempting emergency services, K-12 education, and other protected services. It also expands coordination between state agencies and federal authorities on trafficking, human smuggling, and related cross-border crime, with privacy and due process safeguards.
