in the Oklahoma Statutes as Section 8 of Title 3, unless there is
created a duplication in numbering, reads as follows:
A. 1. A public airport that provides commercial services shall
not enter into an agreement that authorizes a private third-party
vendor that provides expedited security screening to use the
standard security lane or the Transportation Security Administration
PreCheck security lane.

between the public airport and the private third-party vendor that
was entered into before January 1, 2025.

B. This section shall not apply to an agreement between a
public airport and a private third-party vendor if the private
third-party vendor has obtained dedicated Transportation Security
Administration security lanes solely for use by the private third-
party vendor at that public airport.
C. For purposes of this section, an airline, as certified under
14 C.F.R., Part 121 et seq., is not a private third-party vendor.
This section does not apply to any services, including priority
lanes or lines, offered by an airline solely for use by the
airline's passengers, without a separate charge to a passenger by a
private third-party vendor.
SECTION 2. This act shall become effective November 1, 2025.
