MODERATE

The bill was finalized and enrolled for passage, changing the header from a draft floor version to the official enrolled version with the full list of sponsoring legislators. The substantive content regarding the history and capabilities of the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation remained largely the same, though the final resolution clause was slightly expanded to explicitly mention the agency's use of experienced agents in solving serious crimes.

Scope change

The scope of the bill's applicability did not change; it remains a resolution recognizing the OSBI's history and services.

TECHNICAL

The document header was updated from 'Floor (House)' to 'Enrolled (final version)', indicating the bill has passed committee and is ready for final signature.

The list of co-sponsors was added to the enrolled version, including names such as Marti, Moore, Eaves, and others, which were not present in the initial draft.

The final 'Resolved' clause was slightly expanded to add the phrase 'with the expertise of experienced agents' to the description of how the OSBI solves crimes.

Draft-specific instructions like 'DIRECT TO CALENDAR' and 'BOLD FACE denotes Committee Amendments' were removed as they are no longer needed in the final version.
