Where this section sits in the code
  1. OK Code
  2. Title 74

A. The Legislature finds that:

1. Oklahoma has benefited from its implementation of the policy

set forth in Section 1221 of Title 74 of the Oklahoma Statutes

through, among other things, the formation and entry of

intergovernmental agreements or compacts with Tribal nations on a

variety of subjects;

2. As an exercise of executive authority consistent with this

codified policy, the Oklahoma Governor formed and entered certain

Tribal-State agreements relating to motor vehicle licensing and

registration matters, which agreements have benefited all parties by

reducing intergovernmental disputes and increasing revenues

available for roads, bridges, schools, and other valuable community

infrastructure.

B. The State of Oklahoma now offers the following supplemental

term to any Tribe that was, as of January 1, 2023, a party to a

motor vehicle licensing or registration agreement previously

executed by an Oklahoma Governor:

AFFIRMATION AND EXTENSION OF

MOTOR VEHICLE LICENSING/REGISTRATION COMPACT

Between the [NAME OF TRIBE]

and the STATE OF OKLAHOMA

The motor vehicle licensing or registration and license

tag agreement formed and entered by the Oklahoma Governor and

the [NAME OF TRIBE] is hereby affirmed as a compact between the

STATE OF OKLAHOMA and [NAME OF TRIBE] and shall be in effect

until December 31, 2024, and any action to unilaterally

terminate or to issue written notice of the compact’s

nonrenewal prior to that date shall be null and void.

C. Tribal acceptance of this offer shall be indicated by letter

from the Tribal party’s governing body or official reciting the

terms set forth above and delivered to the Oklahoma Tax Commission.

Such acceptance letter, including the terms set forth above and

delivered to the Oklahoma Tax Commission, shall then be filed with

the Oklahoma Secretary of State.
