While you're busy being bombarded with all the scary advertising against State Question 832... here's something to think about.

These four bright red Republican states have higher state minimum wages than Oklahoma's minimum. (Ours is the default federal minimum.)

Take a look at how they're doing.

If raising the minimum wage automatically meant job losses and business closures, we'd expect to see real evidence of that in these states. So far, the sky hasn't fallen.

What does that tell you about the claims being made against SQ832?

“We are ending session early,” Senate Minority Leader Julia Kirt, D-Oklahoma City, said. “And really, I think what that tells constituents is that Republicans are okay with leaving a lot of unsolved problems and leaving a lot of big fires burning.”

Oklahoma! Our state deserves to be a top tier state….but the Republicans have proven that they are incapable of effective governance. Vote BLUE! 🗳️

The Oklahoma Senate has left multiple House measures unconsidered as lawmakers prepare to adjourn two weeks early, raising concerns about unresolved issues.

Blatant corruption.

⛓️‍💥 Yup. You read that right.

A grand jury has found that Gov. Stitt made multiple calls to the DOC Director to get megadonor Sarah Polston, who was serving an 8 year sentence for hitting someone while driving 66 mph in a school zone under the influence, released from prison.

Sara served 73 days in prison before being released to ‘in-house GPS monitoring.’

Her family donated $27,000+ to Stitt’s campaigns.

We deserve better.
