63 OK Stat § 63-686.2 (2016) What's This?

The Legislature declares:

1. Because of existing possibilities of natural or man-made disasters or emergencies of unprecedented destructiveness, which may result in the death or inability to act of a large proportion of the membership of the Legislature; and

2. Because to conform in time of emergency or disaster to existing legal requirements pertaining to the Legislature would be impracticable, and would jeopardize continuity of operation of a legally constituted Legislature; it is therefore necessary to adopt special provisions as hereinafter set out for the effective operation of the Legislature during natural or man-made disasters or emergencies.

Added by Laws 1959, p. 215, § 2, emerg. eff. June 5, 1959. Amended by Laws 1963, c. 340, § 2, emerg. eff. June 24, 1963; Laws 2003, c. 329, § 36, emerg. eff. May 29, 2003.
