The bill establishes the Targeted Violence Prevention Act, which authorizes the Office of Homeland Security to collect, analyze, and disseminate information regarding individuals suspected of involvement in terrorism or other violent crimes. It mandates that any information shared under this act remains confidential, with strict penalties for unauthorized release or use, including felony charges and potential termination of employment for peace officers. The bill also defines certain exceptions for sharing information with law enforcement and establishes that such information is privileged and not subject to court subpoenas, except in specific criminal proceedings.

Additionally, the bill amends existing provisions of the Oklahoma Homeland Security Act, updating statutory language and references. It clarifies the responsibilities of the Office of Homeland Security, including the development of a comprehensive statewide strategy for emergency response and coordination with various agencies and organizations. The Commissioner of Public Safety is granted authority to promulgate rules to implement these provisions, and the act is declared to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
