The Oklahoma House of Representatives is the lower chamber of the Oklahoma State Legislature, serving as one of the two legislative bodies in the U.S. state of Oklahoma. Established in 1907 when Oklahoma achieved statehood, the House consists of 101 members who are elected to two-year terms. Representatives are elected from single-member districts with roughly equal populations across the state. The House chambers are located in the west wing of the Oklahoma State Capitol in Oklahoma City. The chamber is led by the Speaker of the House, who is elected by the majority party caucus and confirmed by the full House membership. Representatives can serve up to 12 years total in the Legislature under term limits adopted by Oklahoma voters in 1990. The Oklahoma House of Representatives works in conjunction with the Oklahoma Senate to create, debate, and pass legislation. The House has exclusive power to initiate revenue bills and conduct impeachment proceedings against state officials. Standing committees play a crucial role in the legislative process, reviewing and refining bills before they reach the House floor. The House also shares responsibility with the Senate for approving the state budget, overseeing state agencies, and confirming certain gubernatorial appointments.
