OK: Marriage bill faces scrutinyThe Oklahoma Daily: “House Bill 3408, as written, would strike two words and add six to Title 43, Section 14 of the Oklahoma statutes. That section addresses criminal punishments for people who are authorized by the state to officiate at weddings but perform illegal marriages. Nelson’s proposed bill would give custody of those arrested under that statute to the Oklahoma Department of Corrections, instead of the state penitentiary.” HB 3408 was referred to rules on 2/2/2010. Text of the bill is available via download here. Current status of Oklahoma legislation can be viewed here.
