Summary

The bill adds the spouses and children of Oklahoma service members killed in the line of duty to the state's tuition and fee waiver programs for public colleges and career‑technology schools. The waiver applies if the deceased was an Oklahoma resident or if the family maintains Oklahoma residency, and it lasts for up to five years. This expands existing benefits that already cover children of peace officers, firefighters, EMTs, and law‑enforcement retirees.
