OK: Bill aims to eliminate licensing barriers, except for…

Oklahoma SB 1619 would prevent licensing agencies from using old crimes to disqualify applicants, setting a time limit of five years from the date of conviction or release from prison, whichever is later. However, boards will still be able to consider violent felonies or crimes that trigger sex offender registration, no matter how long ago those offenses occurred.
