[Oasfaa] UPDATE - SB 639 (OKPromise "Claw Back" bill)

[Fair, Bryce]

Yesterday, Rep. Rhonda Baker, the House author of SB 639, filed a proposed committee amendment to SB 639 that would delete the language in the bill related to the "claw back" requirement.  The amendment text [ http://webserver1.lsb.state.ok.us/cf_pdf/2021-22%20COMMITTEE%20AMENDMENTS/House/SB639%20FULLAMD1%20RHONDA%20BAKER-EK.PDF ] must be read in conjunction with the current text of the bill [ http://webserver1.lsb.state.ok.us/cf_pdf/2021-22%20ENGR/SB/SB639%20ENGR.PDF ].


SB 639 is scheduled to be heard in the House Higher Education and Career Tech Committee on Monday, April 5, at 3:00 p.m. [ see meeting notice at http://webserver1.lsb.state.ok.us/2021-22HB/CMN-HIGHERED-20210405-15000000.pdf ].  If the amendment is approved in committee, the bill would then contain only the provisions to authorize use of the scholarship for additional career technology programs and to expand the time period for use of the scholarship from the current five years to six years.
