excellent insight from Tulsa World in this issue of higher ed! Wayne Greene: Gov. Kevin Stitt wants new leadership for the state's system of colleges and universities, but if Glen Johnson is cast as John Blake, then who's Bob Stoops? https://t.co/7BS2ClOQkC via @tulsaworld

Water quality is an extremely important issues and we owe it to ourselves to see how a massive, virtually unfettered proliferation of industrial chicken farming is affecting the watershed of NE Oklahoma. That means Tulsa too! This is not just a rural issue https://t.co/58DZvwiMmV

this shows how crazy this has become! Desperation for power is the reason for it - power at any cost. Now we have to stand up and say no more. https://t.co/fXw1F7hLRS

This is a very powerful story and one that deserves at least a thoughtful conversation. If this were me I don’t know how I would feel honestly but reading this made me think very hard. Maybe... https://t.co/7LzGThrUnl

So exciting! We need to help our companies do more of this type of thing -- seeking SBIR grants. There is huge opportunity there that Oklahoma IS NOT LEVERAGING https://t.co/52c4CgvkTQ

Wow if this is truly the case, this needs an intense review. Very concerning particularly considering how much lobbying dollars have been paid in this last election cycle. https://t.co/vnhtJuU4jf

Just FYI, I was the original House co-author of SB252 with Sen. Thompson, and this is the third year I have introduced CJR legislation. Here is a link to my op-ed to the Tulsa World that appeared Sunday prior to the last week.https://t.co/UzGpDOy2jL

It’s easy to talk about Criminal Justice Reform when you are on the campaign trail & sitting on panels, but if you aren’t making REAL reform happen once you are elected, it’s simply lip service. Full stop. I’m so disappointed in the failing of #SB252 in @OKHouseofReps today.

I am very disheartened at what transpired this last week if the legislature. They brought out the worst of the worst to try to cram it thru so there wasn’t a lot of time for the public to respond. Just wrong https://t.co/YSEKRojsnZ
