Signed Takes effect

Expands benefits Restored the income tax refund check-off that funds the Indigent Veteran Burial Program.

Amended 68 O.S. § 2368.28 so the refund donation for the Indigent Veteran Burial Revolving Fund appears on returns for tax years 2017 through 2020 and 2026 onward, and did the same for the Department of Veterans Affairs equipment and capital improvement check-off in 72 O.S. § 63.19, which HB 3044 (c. 19) also reauthorised. Left in place the fund's $500 per veteran reimbursement cap, which conflicts with the $1,000 maximum in the burial program sections. Signed May 12, 2026, effective July 1, 2026.
