Bill > SB1163

This bill appropriates $100,000 from the state's General Revenue Fund to the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety (DPS) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. The appropriation is intended to provide funding for the department to carry out its legally mandated responsibilities. The bill includes an emergency clause, which means it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval, allowing the DPS to access and use these funds right away. The emergency declaration suggests that the funding is considered urgent and necessary for maintaining public safety, though the specific immediate need is not detailed in the bill text. The appropriation is flexible, with the language indicating that the department can use up to $100,000 as needed to perform its duties, providing some discretion in how the funds are allocated within the department's operational requirements.
