The bill amends Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 1.01, to clarify the state's sovereignty and jurisdiction, specifically extending it to the waters forming a common boundary between Minnesota and the United States. The language "this" has been deleted and replaced with "Minnesota" to specify the state's jurisdiction more clearly.

Additionally, the bill introduces a new section dedicated to "Xtend testing" in the House, which is intended to take place before the 2026 legislative session. This provision aims to facilitate the testing of Xtend, indicating a focus on legislative processes and potential innovations within the state's governance framework.
