Lawmakers to propose legislation to end Oklahoma grocery tax

Some Oklahoma lawmakers are working to get rid of the state's grocery tax. Currently, Oklahomans pay a 4. 5% tax at the grocery store, and many say it disproportionately impacts families in need. There are 13 states with a grocery tax, and of those, Oklahoma is tied with South Dakota as having the fourth-highest rate.

OK HD-99 seems the odd one out in gerrymandering terms. If you live in that area (OKC Metro), is that fair?

Just when you think democracy moves forward a step in Oklahoma, the GOP tries to pull it back two.

House Republicans move to counter court ruling on absentee ballots

I'm not a fan of this change. This bill is on its way to the OK Senate.

Amended resolution to alter citizens' petition process clears Oklahoma House

MAR 11, 2020 - Oklahoma's House passed Tuesday legislation to require citizens' initiative petitions to collect signatures from all of Oklahoma's congressional districts in order to qualify for a statewide ballot. The proposal, which passed on a near party-line vote, faced fierce opposition from legislative Democrats, who said it would take power away from voters and impede their ability to get petitions on the ballot. House Joint Resolution 1027 by Rep. John Pfeiffer, R-Orlando, would require initiative petition campaigns to collect a certain percentage of signatures from each of the state's five congressional districts.
