Oklahoma bill seeks to criminalize the misuse of service animals by those without disabilities.
A new bill in Oklahoma, House Bill 1178, proposed by Rep. Marilyn Stark, aims to penalize individuals without disabilities who misuse service animals to gain special benefits.
The bill seeks to make such actions a misdemeanor, targeting those who falsely claim animals are service animals to exploit rights meant for disabled individuals.
It also preserves the protections for actual service animals under the Americans with Disabilities Act.
The bill is currently awaiting committee review.
