The bill amends 44 O.S. 2021, Section 23, which pertains to the Governor's role as Commander in Chief of the Militia in Oklahoma. It removes the prohibition against independent military organizations, allowing for greater flexibility in military organization within the state. Additionally, the language in the section is updated to be gender-neutral, replacing references to "he" with "he or she."

The bill also clarifies the powers of the Governor while commanding the state's military forces, including the authority to muster out organizations and discharge enlisted personnel. It maintains the requirement for permission from the Governor for armed military forces from other states to enter Oklahoma, except when they are part of the United States military or acting under its authority. The act is set to take effect on November 1, 2026.
