It does change the rule with disclose. Changed from disclose immediately to disclose upon request. Not asked don't tell.
With that I have a question. I'm a passenger of a car being pulled over I'm carrying my firearm, do I have to be asked directly or when the officer asks the driver if there are any weapons in the car(oh and I'm in the 3rd row of a suburban not going to hear much back there).
What is in there as it passed the house is below. Strike is deleted and Bold added.
There have reduced the "duty to inform" to a "inform upon request", and have reduced the fine to $100, striking out everything else.
(3) An individual licensed under this act to carry a concealed pistol and who is carrying a concealed pistol FIREARM or a portable device that uses electro-muscular disruption technology and who is stopped by a peace officer shall, immediately UPON REQUEST BY THE PEACE OFFICER, disclose to the peace officer that he or she is carrying a pistol FIREARM or a portable device that uses electro-muscular disruption technology concealed upon his or her person or in his or her vehicle.
(4) An individual who violates subsection (1) or (2) THIS SECTION is responsible for a state civil infraction and shall be fined $100.00.

If the individual does not display his or her license or documentation within the 45-day period, the pistol or portable device that uses electro-muscular disruption technology is subject to forfeiture as provided in section 5g.

It sucks that they didn't remove/amend 750.243d, meaning it will still be illegal to carry in a bank or place "licensed by the liquor control act" unless you have a CPL.
Here is the legislation you want.

The problem in previous years was that pro gun legislation got loaded up with enough stuff that it was like playing whack-a-mole to get support. The antis, read "governor", could always pick some narrow part of the bill and use it to rationalize their opposition. With narrower bills, the antis don't have as much wiggle room. Our side was able to frame this debate as a "coat tax". You can carry openly for free, if you are cold you'll have to pay the government to put your jacket on. That is a nice, simple sound bite and some legislator can't argue that, "the lives of bank tellers are more important than your desire to wear a jacket" in order to derail our progress.

Removing 234d is a non starter at this time and it's easy to overcome, getting a license to carry from any state will exempt you from it.
Getting rid of immediate disclosure was a HARD effort. MOC spend hours on that alone.
The only reason we got disclosure watered down was because we pointed out that non-residents already don't have to disclose at all.
For sure.
Keep in mind that we are dealing with the MSP and the MSA. These people actually pushed hard to add a clause to require OC'ers to carry ID and to present it on demand. They have no understanding of the 4th and 5th Amendment and I don't think they care to either.
