COVID-19 not the only threat to Oklahomans health lives

3/31/2020

Comments

 
Small business owners facing the loss of their life’s work, those who live paycheck to paycheck, and those who are simply stressed by the increased uncertainty are all more likely to now consider suicide or fall into substance abuse.


In ordering business closures and restricting citizen movement, government officials have primarily focused on the potential loss of life that could be caused by the COVID-19/coronavirus. Yet experts agree those anti-COVID efforts could also contribute to an increased death count in Oklahoma, highli...

How far should the government go to enforce an order?

3/31/2020

Comments

 
Throwing people out of work, taking away people’s livelihoods, and making people poorer are not the purposes of these orders. And so if an innovative business is able to come up with ways that fully incorporate social distancing into their workplace and customer interactions—why would we shut those businesses down?


Gov. Kevin Stitt has issued a “Safer at Home” executive order, which requires “vulnerable” individuals to remain at home statewide through April 30. It also directs “nonessential” businesses to close until April 16 in counties with any confirmed cases of coronavirus. This includes all of...

Local retailers launch CITYBOX to support small businesses

3/30/2020

Comments

 

"One of the greatest tragedies we have noticed since restaurants have been forced to close their dining spaces is the loss of connection between people," says Landon Ferguson, one of the creators of CITYBOX. "Oklahoma City is a small town. You become accustomed to walking into a place and seeing the 'usuals'."


OKLAHOMA CITY (KOKH) - Creators of Capitals Ice Cream have started CITYBOX in OKC. The CITYBOX is designed to bring local Oklahoma City and night-out experiences to your living room. "One of the greatest tragedies we have noticed since restaurants have been forced to close their dining spaces is the...

Wisdom of savings revealed in pandemic

3/30/2020

Comments

 

With the state facing large budget shortfalls, it’s clear that putting some money in savings was the prudent thing to do. Please take a moment to thank those lawmakers who did so! It will take less than 60 seconds.


I contacted my lawmaker to say "thank you" for voting to save money last year. These savings will now protect jobs and preserve funding for Oklahoma’s health needs during a pandemic. Click to do the same.[@campaign]

OCPA comments on passing of Dr. Tom Coburn

3/29/2020

Comments

 


Jonathan Small, president of the Oklahoma Council of Public Affairs, issued the following statement today in response to the passing of Dr. Tom Coburn.
History will rank Dr. Coburn among Oklahoma’s greatest leaders. At OCPA, we were blessed to have Dr. Coburn serve on our board, where his insight and leadership was invaluable. For those who ask if a conservative can remain true to his principles once in office, there will forever be an answer: Yes. Tom Coburn showed it could be done, and he blazed a path others can follow.

    Oklahoma Council of Public Affairs

      For 25 years, OCPA has served as Oklahoma’s largest and most influential free-market based think tank. We conduct research and analysis of public issues in Oklahoma from a perspective of limited government, individual liberty, and a free-market economy.
      Over the years, OCPA has steadily increased in breadth, scope and ultimately, effectiveness. As long as government exists, there needs to be an organization to keep it accountable. In Oklahoma, we are that organization. And our policy work provides the road map for our state’s success.
      Policy matters because people matter. It matters that students attend high-quality schools. It matters that small business owners are free from red tape. It matters that government is responsible and limited. It matters that the most vulnerable have access to opportunity.
      And you matter to us.

 SoonerPolitics.org is committed to informing & mobilizing conservative Oklahomans for civic reform & restored liberty. We seeks to utilize the efforts of all cooperative facets of the Conservative movement... Content of the diverse columns are solely at the discretion of the dozens of websites who create the content.   David Van Risseghem  is the founder of this platform.
 Sooner Politics News is a platform, not a media site. All our bloggers get their feeds promoted regardless of content. As soon as We suppress or delete even one posting, we become an endorser of whatever We didn't censor..The publisher doesn't (and could not) logically agree with all the content, so we would not expect any rational reader to agree, either. What we do hope, is that readers will think for themselves, and at least be better informed of the issues, events, and values that our citizen journalists work hard to provide for free.. We automate much of the tasks so that our sources' content gets as much exposure as possible. We encourage constructive discussion & debate. The solution is more free speech, not less.​
