S.B. No. 1052
DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS
An Act relating to the Department of Corrections; requiring the expenditure of certain funds in certain amounts for certain purposes; providing lapse dates; and requiring and prohibiting certain budget procedures.
SUBJECT: Department of Corrections
BE IT ENACTED BY THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA:
SECTION 1. From the funds appropriated to the Department of Corrections in Enrolled Senate Bill No. 1040 of the 2nd Session of the 58th Oklahoma Legislature, the Department of Corrections shall expend Four Million Eight Hundred Ninety-four Thousand Six Hundred Fifty Dollars ($4,894,650.00) for the purpose of funding a contractual per diem increase at the Lawton Correctional and Rehabilitation Facility.
SECTION 2. From the funds appropriated to the Department of Corrections in Enrolled Senate Bill No. 1040 of the 2nd Session of the 58th Oklahoma Legislature, the Department of Corrections shall expend Two Million Nine Hundred Twenty Thousand Dollars ($2,920,000.00) for the purpose of funding a contractual per diem increase at the Davis Correctional Facility.
SECTION 3. Appropriations made by this act, not including appropriations made for capital outlay purposes, may be budgeted for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023 (hereafter FY–23), or may be budgeted for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024 (hereafter FY–24). Funds budgeted for FY–23 may be encumbered only through June 30, 2023, and must be expended by November 15, 2023. Any funds remaining after November 15, 2023, and not budgeted for FY–24, shall lapse to the credit of the proper fund for the then current fiscal year. Funds budgeted for FY–24 may be encumbered only through June 30, 2024. Any funds remaining after November 15, 2024, shall lapse to the credit of the proper fund for the then current fiscal year. These appropriations may not be budgeted in both fiscal years simultaneously. Funds budgeted in FY–23, and not required to pay obligations for that fiscal year, may be budgeted for FY–24, after the agency to which the funds have been appropriated has prepared and submitted a budget work program revision removing these funds from the FY–23 budget work program and after such revision has been approved by the Office of Management and Enterprise Services.
Governor's veto overridden by both houses of the Legislature and filed with the Secretary of State May 27, 2022.
MESSAGE FROM THE
OKLAHOMA STATE SENATE
5/27/2022
TO THE SECRETARY OF STATE
I am directed to inform you that the Senate has adopted the following and ordered same transmitted to you herewith:
Transmitting Enrolled SB 1052, and advising that under the provisions of Article VI, Sections 11 and 12 of the Constitution of the State of Oklahoma, the Senate and the House of Representatives has reconsidered and passed said bill over the Governor's veto by a two-thirds vote of each house.
By order of the Senate of the State of Oklahoma, this message is sent:

No. SB 1052
TIME SIGNED: 9:18 p.m.
TO THE HONORABLE PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE
AND MEMBERS OF THE OKLAHOMA SENATE
SECOND REGULAR SESSION OF THE
FIFTY-EIGHTH OKLAHOMA LEGISLATURE
ENROLLED SNATE BILL NO. 1052:
Pursuant to the authority vested in me by Section 12 of Article VI of the Oklahoma Constitution to approve or disapprove any appropriation bills, or any item therein contained, I have vetoed Sections 1 and 2, in their entireties, of Enrolled Senate Bill 1052.
Sections 1 and 2 of Enrolled Senate Bill 1052 would reward private out-of-state companies that, while under contract with the Department of Corrections (DOC), brokered deals directly with the Legislature instead of first negotiating contractual terms directly with DOC. If Sections 1 and 2 of the House Bill 1052 were to become law, the contractors would receive money in addition to anything to which they may be entitled under the existing contracts. Moreover, without terms having been negotiated to address the per diem increases referenced in the bill, there would be no guardrails or accountability associated with the use of the appropriated funds.
For these reasons, I have vetoed Sections 1 and 2, in their entireties, of Enrolled Senate Bill 1052.
