This is the right move. Parents and guardians should determine religious instruction for their children. Not public schools.

Here’s to hoping I don’t have to pull out the mom look again any time soon!

I am hopeful for sunnier days ahead for Oklahoma teachers, students and families.

This is the same exact process for starting any school club or activity. Chess club, Robotics club, you name it.

If a group of students want to start a club, they find a willing teacher sponsor and they can start one. Parent permission is generally required.

The OK Supreme Court has paused the new social studies standards.

Schools will stick w 2019 standards, as a lawsuit argues the new rules push religion into classrooms & sidestep the law.

Our kids deserve facts, not politics—& I’ll keep standing up for OK families & educators. #okleg #education

It’s heavy. The contrast between today and yesterday hurts my heart.

We are one nation. We are all Americans. We are all human.

United we must stand.

Today, I remember and honor the lives lost on 9-11-2001.

I wish all the families, today and yesterday, peace and light. /end

Yesterday, calls for violence against fellow Americans littered social media.

Today, I awake to the memory of what happened in our country just 24 years ago.

A violent moment that united us as one nation through sorrow and grief and disbelief.

Yesterday, a man was killed, a father to little ones lost. My own family has known that very same heartache, and I grieve for them.

Yesterday, children at school were targeted by a gunman, and mothers began worrying at hospital bedsides.

if our tax dollars were used to create and distribute the video.

I love our city, and this is not okay.

The Governor needs to remove his offensive video and issue an apology to the people of our city. Full stop.

Don’t hate the 918.

The governor’s anti-Tulsa propaganda video is deeply offensive.

It is an interesting move to attack a city in his own state. Especially one whose economic impact is a critical driver of Oklahoma’s success.

I have to wonder 1/

Tulsa must dramatically boost its housing supply over the next decade, experts say Officials say outdated construction rules make it too costly to build affordable residences. Lawmakers are weighing how to cut red tape without cutting corners on safety.

“If we want to be competitive in all the things we’re offering as a state, we need to have housing supply that meets the needs of individuals and of the employers we’re hoping to bring to the state,” Rep. Suzanne Schreiber said.

We need creative, strategic thinking to begin to address these issues.
