LEGISLATIVE UPDATE
OKLAHOMA STATE REGENTS FOR HIGHER EDUCATION
Friday, April 21, 2000
Highlights This Week
Appropriation and Fee Bills Pass Senate, Head to Governor: On Monday, the Senate approved both the General Appropriation Bill (HB 2260) and SB 1305, which increases the statutory limits on certain student fees. Both bills passed easily and are now pending action by the Governor.
The General Appropriations bill, which passed by a 40-8 margin, provides $748.6 million to higher education. This amount does not replace the $23.5 million that higher education received from the state’s Rainy Day Fund for the current fiscal year. Replacement of these funds will be considered by the Legislature during the remaining weeks of the legislative session.
The Senate approved SB 1305 by a 41-4 vote. The bill increases the statutory limitations on three student fees—library fees, facility fees, and student health care fees.
