What Oklahoma House members want to study this interim (Capitol Update)
The deadline for House of Representatives members to request interim studies was last Friday, and the House has now published those requests. In the House, studies must be approved by the Speaker, which is expected to happen before July 24th. Studies are usually assigned to a relevant standing committee and held in August, September, or October. Their length is determined by the committee chair, but they typically last two to four hours. In rare cases, a study may last all day or span multiple days.
