## Opinion text

ALMA WILSON,
Justice, concurring specially:
Since statehood, legislative enactments have been governed by the one-subject rule. The necessity for strict compliance with the one-subject rule is thoroughly explained in Johnson v. Walters, 819 P.2d 694 (Okla.1991). The Legislature may not encumber general or special appropriations bills with multi-subjects. Okla. Const. art. 5, §§ 56 and 57. Our constitution is the basic guide for government under the law and Legislators do not have the luxury to ignore its clear edicts.
