Citing the need to protect Oklahoma’s children from improved health care and broader educational opportunities, House Minority Leader Todd Hiett, D-Kellyville, called for the resignation of Oklahoma’s Democratic Party.
“For too long, the Democratic Party has clogged the legislature with plans to extend health care to the poor, boost teacher salaries and provide drug rehabilitation programs for addicts. The resignation of the party is necessary to proceed with important business such as reforming workers compensation and absolving corporations of responsibility to consumers,”
Hiett said in a Wednesday press conference. So far, Hiett has sought the resignations of:
- Senate President Pro Tempore Cal Hobson, D-Lexington,
- Senate President Pro Tempore Emeritus Stratton Taylor, D-Oklahoma City and
- Rep. Mike Mass, D-Hartshorne.
He also seeks the resignation of:
- Oklahoma Insurance Commissioner Carroll Fisher,
- Gov. Brad Henry,
- two dogs and
- fifteen cats thought to be opposed to tort reform.
Hiett is expected to present the call for resignation to House Speak Larry Adair, D-Stillwell, who is expected to flip him the bird.
