OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) An Oklahoma bill would make it illegal for all cities in the state, except Oklahoma City and Tulsa, to provide shelters or outreach for homeless citizensand would also require them to immediately end any existing programs.
Oklahoma Senate Bill 484, introduced and authored by newly-elected Senator Lisa Standridge (R-Norman), would ban all cities in Oklahoma with fewer than 300,000 residents from using city resources to operate homeless shelters or perform homeless outreach.
Only Oklahoma City and Tulsa have more than 300,000 residents, meaning, if SB 484 were to pass, it would apply to every city in the state except Oklahoma City and Tulsa.
If any cities with a population below 300,000 that currently operate homeless shelters or outreach programs, the bill would require the cities to immediately terminate them.
