AI Summary

This bill modifies the Oklahoma Rural Jobs Act by adjusting the definition of a "qualified investment" to clarify that businesses cannot refinance prior qualified investments with new capital investment funds, and it also revises the annual cap on state tax credits that can be claimed, setting separate caps for investments made before and after the bill's effective date. The Oklahoma Rural Jobs Act is a program designed to incentivize capital investments in rural businesses by offering tax credits to investors. The bill also updates references within the act to ensure they correctly point to the relevant sections of Oklahoma law and specifies that the changes will take effect on November 1, 2026.
