[This list was updated on April 8, 2024.]

Below is a list of bills that are eligible to be included on the OCPA Legislative Scorecard for the 2024 legislative session.

The scorecard is an effort to inform Oklahoma citizens how their state legislators vote at the state Capitol on issues related to free markets, limited government, individual initiative, personal responsibility, and strong families. OCPA will periodically update this watch list with additional bills as the session progresses. This watch list, as well as subsequent updates, will be emailed to every legislator and posted on OCPA’s website.

A bill’s presence on the watch list does not guarantee that it will be included on the scorecard, but a bill on the watch list is eligible to be added to the scorecard at any time. Subject to the fluidity of the legislative process, OCPA will strive to add a given bill to the watch list prior to that bill being voted on.
