HB 4048 Oklahoma House · 2026 Regular Session

Department of Transportation; making appropriations; sources of funds; purposes; effective date; emergency.

HB 4048 is a procedural bill that names the "Public Finance Act of 2026" and sets its effective date as November 1, 2026. It does not create new policies or alter existing laws, as it is explicitly non-codified (meaning it won't be added to Oklahoma's official statutes). The bill solely establishes the name and effective date for administrative purposes. It directly affects no individuals or entities, as it serves only as a formal designation. This is a routine naming measure with no substantive policy impact.

MODERATE

The bill text was updated from the House Committee Substitute version to the Floor version, reflecting the final text as amended. The substantive policy content, including the specific funding amounts and project locations, remains consistent between the two versions. The primary changes involve formatting updates, such as adding a header indicating this is the 'Floor Version' and updating the page footer to reflect the final House floor status.

TECHNICAL

The document header was changed to explicitly identify this version as the 'House of Representatives - Floor Version'.

The page footer was updated from 'Req. No. 17409' to 'HB4048 HFLR' to reflect the final floor version status.

The committee report line was updated to include the date '04/13/2026' and the instruction 'DO PASS, As Amended'.

A note was added to the footer stating that 'BOLD FACE denotes Committee Amendments' to help readers distinguish changes.
