“When we start to look at the next year’s budget, we have to make up roughly $550 million just to get back to zero. It fixes a short-term problem, but it doesn’t necessarily solve our long-term problem," said Oklahoma State Board of Education member William Flanagan.

    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.​
