Oklahoma School of Science and Mathematics; appropriating certain funds for certain purpose; utilization; effective date; emergency.
This bill establishes the "Public Finance Act of 2026" as a noncodified act (meaning it won't be added to Oklahoma's official statutes) and sets its effective date as November 1, 2026. It does not create new policies or affect specific groups; it is purely procedural, naming the legislation and defining its implementation timeline. The bill has no substantive policy changes or mechanisms beyond this administrative designation.

MINOR
The bill text was updated to reflect its status as the 'Floor Version' after passing the House Committee, replacing the 'Committee Substitute' header. The substantive content regarding the appropriation of $93,000 for the Oklahoma School of Science and Mathematics remains unchanged, as the diff primarily shows formatting updates and the addition of a committee report indicating the bill should pass.
TECHNICAL
The document header was changed from 'Committee Substitute' to 'Floor Version' to indicate the bill has moved from committee review to the full House floor for voting.
A committee report note was added stating the bill is recommended to 'DO PASS' as amended, dated April 13, 2026.
Page footers were updated to reflect the new floor version identifier (HB4065 HFLR) instead of the committee substitute identifier.
