It modifies the exemption amount for homesteads, establishing that each homestead will be exempt from all forms of ad valorem taxation up to $1,000 of the assessed valuation for tax years 1988 through 2026.

Additionally, the bill clarifies that these exemptions are provided pursuant to Section 1 of Article XII-A of the Oklahoma Constitution. The effective date for this act is set for November 1, 2026.
