The Oklahoma House of Representatives, concluding what has reportedly been a grueling three weeks of public policy debate, passed a workers¡¯ compensation reform bill designed to keep a lid on costs.

According to the House media services division, looming term limits prompted legislators to tackle a number of controversial high profile issues during the six-week old session. Because of a constitutional amendment adopted in 1990 by Oklahoma voters, 28 Representatives and 13 Senators must retire from the Oklahoma Legislature after the general election in November.
