A message from the 

CHAIRMAN 

As the voice of business in Greater Oklahoma City, 

the Chamber is your advocate on issues affecting the 

business community. Each year, the legislative session 

presents us with the opportunity to strengthen our 

region’s business climate. 

We saw significant progress during the 2011 legislative 

session, but our work is far from over. The priorities 

laid out in our 2012 agenda will foster growth, both for 

Greater Oklahoma City and the business community. 

As our region continues to grow and expand, we must 

ensure that the decisions made at the capitol will not 

impede our progress. 

As we’re presented with another election year, the 

work of the Greater Oklahoma City Chamber Political 

Action Committee (Greater OKC Chamber PAC) is 

as important as ever. Through the PAC, we are able 

to support candidates for elected office who share our 

vision to create a business-friendly city. I cannot express 

how vital it is that the individuals who represent us in 

the halls of government share our vision for a greater 

Oklahoma City. During the last election year, the PAC 

supported 22 candidates – with 21 of those candidates 

elected to office. 

I hope you’ll take 

a closer look at 

each of the ways 

in which you can 

get involved in 

our legislative 

efforts. Through 

a concerted 

grassroots effort, 

I’m certain we’ll continue to see success at the capitol 

and positively impact the business climate in Greater 

Oklahoma City. 

Sincerely, 

Carl Edwards

2012 LEGISLATIVE GUIDE

Legislative 

AGENDA 

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 

Business Incentives 

All business incentives should provide the state with a 

benefit that outweighs the cost of the incentive. 

The Chamber therefore supports increased 

scrutiny, transparency and openness in 

evaluating the effectiveness of the 

state’s economic development 

incentives and the creation 

of a process to do so. In 

addition, we support 

revising the language 

of any incentive that 

needs to be changed or 

narrowed to accomplish 

its intended purpose. 

The Chamber relies heavily 

on a number of the state’s 

economic development and 

incentive programs to recruit 

companies to Greater Oklahoma 

City and to promote the growth of 

our existing companies. We believe it is 

critical that certain programs be retained by 

the state. 

Our position on specific economic development 

incentives is: 

• The Chamber supports retaining premier 

economic development incentives that are critical 

in attracting new businesses to the Greater 

Oklahoma City area and in providing existing 

businesses an economic incentive to expand. 

These incentive programs are for the most part 

unique to Oklahoma and separate the state from 

what other states and competing locations are 

offering. We will oppose attempts to change, 

sunset or repeal the following premier economic 

development incentives: The Quality Jobs Program 

(QJP), The 21st Century QJP, The Small 

Employer QJP, The Prime Contractor QJP and 

The Aerospace Engineer Tax Credit. 

• The Chamber supports protecting Oklahoma’s 

foundational incentive programs, which are 

basic incentives offered by virtually 

every other state and competing 

location. Without the following 

programs, Oklahoma 

will not be considered 

a viable location by 

most companies: fiveyear 

ad valorem tax 

abatement and sales tax 

exemption on facilities 

and equipment used 

in manufacturing 

and warehouse and 

distributions systems, 

the Freeport (Inventory) 

Exemption and the 

Investment/New Jobs Tax 

Credit. 

• The Chamber supports the 

retention of several industry specific incentives that 

are necessary for the growth and development of 

industries important to Oklahoma’s economic 

future. Those programs are: the Oklahoma 

Quality Events Act, Oklahoma Film & Music 

office incentives, the Sales Tax Exemption & 

Refund for Aircraft Repairs and Modification, 

the Sales Tax Exemption & Refund for Aircraft 

Maintenance or Manufacturing Facilities and the 

Excise Tax Exemption on Aircraft Sales. 

• The Chamber supports retaining the following 

Community Development Programs: 1) Tax 

Credit for Qualified Rehabilitation Expenditures 

for Historic Buildings; 2) Tax Credit for 

Electricity Generated by Zero-Emission 


• adopt the “Transparency in Private Attorney 

Contracting Act” to establish policies and limits 

on the use of private contingency fee attorneys 

on behalf of the state. 

• ensure the Oklahoma Evidence Code (section 

2407) mirrors the Federal Rules of Evidence 

with regard to products liability and subsequent 

remedial measures. 

• require that prior to any action, claim or 

motion for discovery against an officer, director, 

shareholder or member of a corporation or LLC, 

a judgment against the corporation or LLC must 

be unsatisfied. 

Facilities; and, 3) Tax Credit for Energy Efficient 

Residential Construction. These programs have 

different policy objectives than the economic 

development incentive programs and should 

therefore be evaluated under different metrics. 

Research and Development 

The Chamber advocates for full funding of programs 

managed by OCAST, including the Seed Capital Fund 

and other programs managed by i2E, to support the 

creation and growth of small businesses and jobs in 

Oklahoma. 

We advocate for the protection of the Economic 

Development Generating Excellence Fund (“EDGE 

Fund”) from being repealed or borrowed from and 

support identifying a permanent funding source to allow 

the Fund to reach $1 billion. 

Liquor Laws 

The Chamber will work with industry stakeholders, 

legislators and others to update the state’s liquor laws. 

We support legislation to address liquor licensing issues in 

Bricktown relating to the 300-foot rule, which prevents 

the ABLE Commission from granting liquor licenses to 

new bars within 300 feet of schools or churches. 

Lawsuit Reform 

The Chamber supports legislation that will: 

• significantly reform the state’s class action lawsuit 

statutes. 

• permit the admissibility of evidence of collateral 

source payments. 

Workers’ Compensation Reform 

The Chamber believes the impact of the reforms 

enacted during the 2011 legislative session should be 

fully evaluated before enacting additional, significant 

reforms. Until then, we support incremental reforms 

to streamline the process, eliminate waste and delay 

from the system and produce lower premium costs for 

Oklahoma employers. 

Business Tax Reform 

The Chamber supports legislation or a constitutional 

amendment to permanently address the 2009 ruling 

of the Oklahoma Supreme Court which held that ad 

valorem tax is owed on a company’s Intangible Personal 

Property (such as trademarks, patents, computer 

software, contracts, customer lists, goodwill and 

advertising campaigns). 

Income Tax Reform 

The Chamber supports a reduction in the state income 

tax provided the necessity of generating increased revenue 

does not fall disproportionately or unfairly on businesses. 

Immigration Reform 

The Chamber opposes illegal immigration. We support an 

improved immigration process that promotes the ability of 

students and workers to enter the U.S. lawfully and allows 

employers to accurately verify the status of employees 

through a federal database. We believe that immigration 

policy should be set by the federal government and 

support comprehensive reform at that level. 

Additionally, the Chamber will support immigration 

reform on the state level that: 

4 


1) is consistent with federal law; 

2) does not place unreasonable burdens, costs or 

penalties on Oklahoma employers; 

3) is directed toward law enforcement issues related 

to Oklahoma crimes; 

4) will not lead to “racial profiling” by law 

enforcement officials; and, 

5) does not limit the ability of students graduating 

from Oklahoma high schools to qualify for statesupported 

aid or pay in-state tuition. 

American Indian Cultural Center & Museum 

The Chamber supports legislation to allow state bonds to 

be issued to match privately-raised funds to facilitate the 

completion of the American Indian Cultural Center & 

Museum. 

Water 

The Chamber will work with the City of Oklahoma 

City to ensure the availability of a long-term water supply 

for central Oklahoma. We will continue to monitor the 

implementation of the state comprehensive water plan 

and water-related legislation to protect central Oklahoma’s 

water supply. 

Pension Reform 

The Chamber supports a constitutional amendment to 

protect and strengthen the financial condition of the 

state’s pension plans by requiring existing pension benefit 

obligations be satisfactorily funded before adopting 

additional benefit improvements. 

PRE-K - 12 EDUCATION 

Early Childhood Education 

The Chamber has been a steadfast supporter for early 

childhood education including support for full funding of 

pre-kindergarten and kindergarten programs. We support 

legislative initiatives that would enhance early childhood 

education programs and initiatives. 

Transformational Education Reform 

In 2011 legislation was introduced that would create an 

in-state competitive program to fund new and innovative 

programs to improve performance, close the achievement 

gap and raise accountability. The Chamber supports 

passage of legislation that will allow the State Department 

of Education to create an in-state grant program to 

encourage innovative programs. 

Charter Schools and School Choice 

The Chamber has been a strong advocate for the creation 

and use of charter schools and creation of more education 

choices. We support reforms that enable charter schools 

to fund infrastructure, including changes to the school 

funding formula and/or allowing charter schools to be able 

to utilize bond funding. We also support efforts to lift the 

caps on how many students can attend a charter school. 

Improved Transparency 

In 2011 the legislature enacted a new law that requires 

all schools to be graded on an A-F system instead of the 

current 0-1500 rating scale – improving transparency and 

making it easier for parents to evaluate school performance. 

We support passage of follow-up legislation and regulatory 

changes needed to improve transparency. In particular we 

encourage careful consideration of key factors that impact 

the new grading system including data matching issues, 

economic development impact and utilization of overall 

school improvement data. 

Online Education / Virtual Schools 

Programs that offer online education opportunities are 

expanding rapidly, but there are concerns about the impact 

on school funding and questions about the quality and 

accountability of online providers. We support legislation 

to define curriculum and academic requirements that will 

allow students to earn academic credit via online courses. 

We support changes only if online education providers 

meet content and rigor requirements similar to local 

public schools. We support legislation to clarify the rules 

governing online and/or virtual schools and that creates 

transparency for providers, school districts, parents and 

students. 

Increased Instruction Time 

Studies show a correlation between student time in 

the classroom and increased academic performance. 

Oklahoma currently requires only 175 instructional days, 

which is among the lowest in the nation, and some schools 

have instructional days of six hours or less. We support 

legislation that facilitates increasing instruction time in the 

classroom and time on-task. This may include additional 

days and/or additional hours in the instructional day. 


Improved Teacher Preparation 

Teachers face many challenges, and schools that train 

teachers must continue to improve curriculum and 

better prepare teachers. We support implementation of 

programs that will improve the education of teachers and 

provide them with additional “real world experience” 

before they enter the workforce. Higher education 

should also monitor graduates once they start teaching. 

Incentives for Excellence in Teaching 

The recruitment, development and retention of strong 

and dedicated teachers are fundamental elements of any 

successful educational system. We support 

utilization of the National Board 

Certification (NBCT) model as a 

basis for creating high performing 

teachers but encourage these 

reforms: 

• pay teachers who 

previously qualified 

for NBCT stipends 

for the remainder of 

their certification, plus 

the years missed. 

• recommit to offering 

NBCT scholarships 

for teachers to pursue 

certification and/or recertification, 

with a cap to 

contain costs. 

• phase-out NBCT stipend as the certification hits 

the 10-year expiration date. 

• invest in a pilot, whole-school professional 

development model. 

• initiate discussion of pay-for-service stipend 

model for future NBCTs. 

Teacher Salaries - Pay for Performance 

The business community has regularly supported efforts 

to raise teacher salaries to the regional average. The 

Chamber will continue to support creating competitive 

salary and benefits for teachers, but any future benefit 

enhancements should be based on improved student 

performance. 

In 2010 legislation authorized creation of an innovative 

Teacher and Leader Evaluation (TLE) system that will 

tie evaluation to student performance, change definition 

of tenure and create an incentive pay system. We support 

aggressive implementation of the TLE system and a payfor-performance 

system to provide financial incentives 

for high performing educators. 

Student Records Systems 

In 2009 the legislature enacted a bill to begin creation 

of a statewide P-20 student records system. In 2010 

additional legislation required dramatic improvement of 

the system as part of the TLE. The system must include 

student level, course grades, testing results, demographic 

and personal information. The system would also help 

track students who move from district to 

district and help monitor graduation 

rates. The Chamber supports 

aggressive implementation of 

a uniform, statewide student 

records system. 

Improve Curriculum 

Standards 

In 2010 legislation was 

passed that requires the 

State Board of Education 

to adopt the K-12 

Common Core Standards. 

We support aggressive and 

full implementation of the core 

standards and, in particular, encourage 

higher math standards. 

Maintain and Protect Graduation Requirements 

The Chamber and the Oklahoma Business & Education 

Coalition (OBEC) worked to ensure all high school 

graduates are academically prepared to enter college or 

the workforce and supported the Achieving Classroom 

Excellence (ACE) law that requires students to complete 

rigorous coursework and pass four of seven end-ofinstruction 

exams. We oppose weakening graduation 

requirements or curriculum standards, as well as 

legislative and administrative actions that could reduce 

the rigor of the testing system. 

Oklahoma School of Science and Mathematics 

The Oklahoma School of Science and Mathematics 

(OSSM) has consistently ranked among the nation’s top 

public high schools, and has the highest average ACT 

score in the U.S. We support the full funding of OSSM 

6 


so it can remain a center for excellence. Also, we will 

oppose efforts that would require OSSM students to pay 

for portions of their tuition or room and board, as this 

would create a barrier for certain students to attend. 

Health and Wellness 

The health statistics of Oklahomans and in particular, 

children, are alarming. A key factor in improving our 

overall health is awareness of what can be done to improve 

our health status. We support initiatives to encourage 

more health and wellness programs in our schools. 

HIGHER EDUCATION 

College Degree Completion 

In September 2011, Gov. Mary Fallin announced a new 

higher education initiative to increase the number of 

Oklahomans who have post secondary certificates and 

college degrees. The Chamber supports passage of the 

legislative initiatives that will enhance implementation of 

Gov. Fallin’s college degree completion plan. 

Funding 

Increasing the number of college graduates in Oklahoma 

will increase our per capita income and strengthen 

our economy. We support higher education funding 

as growth revenue is available and support leaving the 

tuition setting authority with the Oklahoma State 

Regents for Higher Education. The Chamber supports 

higher education capital and maintenance improvements 

to support record enrollment growth. We also support 

continuation of OTEG (equalization grants) and OTAG 

(aid grants). 

Endowed Chairs 

The Endowed Chairs program is an effective program 

that provides state funding to match private contributions 

for teaching and research professorships. The Chamber 

supports finding a solution to help the state meet the 

commitment to match private contributions. 

Campus Safety 

In the past three years legislation has been introduced 

that would allow certain students to carry concealed 

weapons onto college property. The Chamber continues 

to oppose efforts to permit the carrying of concealed 

weapons on higher education campuses. 

Oklahoma’s 

Promise 

OK Promise is 

one of the most 

successful college 

access programs 

in the country. 

There have been 

efforts in past 

sessions to change 

the program’s 

requirements to 

reduce the number 

of students eligible 

to participate. 

Changing the 

program’s requirements would alter its intent, which is 

to ultimately provide students more access to college, 

resulting in an increase in Oklahoma college graduates. 

We oppose legislation that would change the focus of the 

program. 

Career Tech System 

The Oklahoma Career Tech System is recognized as 

one of the top systems in the nation. The Chamber 

supports enhancement of Career Tech programming 

and funding. In particular we support legislation that 

creates additional flexibility in utilizing the building 

fund and legislation requiring a fourth unit of math that 

recognizes CTE (career technology education) math as 

meeting graduation requirements. 

The Chamber opposes legislation that further expands 

possession of firearms on technology center campuses. 

HEALTH CARE 

Mandates 

The Chamber opposes new health insurance mandates 

and liability that will undermine an employer’s ability to 

provide quality health insurance at a reasonable cost to 

employees. 

Health Insurance Network 

The Chamber supports the creation of an Oklahoma-led 

and private sector-based state health insurance network 

that will provide a marketplace for Oklahomans and 


primary care physicians and allied health professionals 

in Oklahoma, especially in rural and underserved areas, 

through expansion of residency programs in the state’s 

medical schools, scholarships, loan forgiveness and other 

incentives. We further support efforts to identify new 

funding streams dedicated to this initiative. 

serve to prevent the imposition of burdensome federal 

mandates upon the State of Oklahoma required under 

the current federal health care law. 

Research and Development 

The Chamber will oppose efforts to unreasonably restrict 

the continued development of the state’s bioscience and 

research programs and will support efforts to foster an 

environment that is conducive to further research. 

Medicaid 

Because HB 1381 (the Supplementary Hospital Offset 

Payment Program (SHOPP) Act) expires in 2014, the 

Chamber supports a long-term solution to fund the 

state’s Medicaid program through full reimbursement 

funding for Medicaid services provided by hospitals to 

the federal upper payment limit (UPL). The Chamber 

further supports setting the Medicaid reimbursement 

rate for physicians at no less than 100 percent of 

Medicare rates. 

Wellness 

The Chamber supports state wellness and prevention 

programs that serve to improve the health of 

Oklahomans, such as programs supported through the 

State Department of Health, outreach initiatives, as well 

as workplace and school-based wellness programs. 

Smoking 

The Chamber supports legislation that would remove 

the restriction on the hiring of non-smokers after Nov. 

1, 2012. 

The Chamber will monitor legislation that would give 

municipalities the right to ban smoking in public places. 

Increased Health Professional Workforce 

The Chamber supports incentives to recruit and retain 

Federal Issues 

The Chamber supports improving health care quality, 

coverage and affordability without imposing new 

mandates and/or taxes on business. Therefore, we 

oppose a single-payer government-run/public option or 

health care system with government mandates. 

We believe that employers drive innovation in health 

benefits and that market-driven health reforms are 

the best approach to reducing costs while promoting 

efficiency, wellness and quality of care. 

TRANSPORTATION 

I-40 Crosstown Realignment 

The Chamber will advocate for funding and completion 

of the I-40 Crosstown realignment mainline in 2012. 

The Chamber will advocate for funding and completion 

of the teardown of the elevated portion of the existing 

I-40 Crosstown to make way for the Downtown 

Boulevard by 2013. 

The Chamber will work with the Congressional 

Delegation, the Oklahoma Department of Transportation 

(ODOT), and the City of Oklahoma City to complete 

the Downtown Boulevard by 2014. 

The Chamber will advocate for completion of the 

Lincoln/Byers project to connect Bricktown to the 

Oklahoma River and Boathouse Row in 2012. 

Federal Highway Trust Fund 

The Chamber will work with ODOT, the City of 

Oklahoma City and our Congressional Delegation to 

secure a permanent funding solution for the Federal 

Highway Trust Fund. We also support the reauthorization 

of the multi-year Surface Transportation Act. 

Major Interchanges 

The Chamber will advocate for funding and completing 

8 


work on major interchanges located at I-44 and 

Broadway Extension, I-240 and I-35 (Crossroads) as well 

as the necessary improvements to S.H. 74 (north of Lake 

Hefner Parkway). 

10th Street Ramp 

The Chamber will advocate for completion of the I-235/ 

Harrison/10th Street ramp access improvements in 

2012. 

Governor’s Bridge Improvement and Turnpike 

Modernization Plan 

The Chamber supports Governor Fallin’s Bridge 

Improvement and Turnpike Modernization Plan to 

repair or replace all of Oklahoma’s structurally 

deficient and functionally obsolete 

bridges by 2019 and to expand the 

Kilpatrick Turnpike. 

Weigh Stations 

The Chamber supports the 

timely completion of weigh 

stations at Oklahoma’s 

ports of entry to ensure 

the protection of roads and 

bridges from unnecessary 

damage caused by overweight 

freight loads. 

Allowable Weight Limit 

The Chamber will study the potential 

impact of federal legislation that would 

significantly increase the allowable weight limit 

of trucks hauling freight on Interstate Highways. 

Legislative Funding 

The Chamber supports efforts made by the state 

legislature to secure transportation funding and preserve 

ODOT’s eight-year construction work plan. 

Transit 

The Chamber supports continued dialogue on transit 

programs that will best serve Central Oklahoma 

including: 

• Central Oklahoma Transportation & Parking 

Authority’s (COTPA) 2005 Fixed Guideway 

Transit Study (alternative analysis process) 

• ACOG’s Regional Transit Dialogue Committees 

to identify regional transit alternatives/solutions 

for Central Oklahoma 

• alternatives analysis process for examining 

potential commuter rail corridors 

• amending state laws to facilitate the development 

of improved transit in Central Oklahoma. 

We support COTPA’s effort to secure a $75 million 

New Starts Grant from the federal government that 

would allow for an additional four-mile expansion of the 

downtown streetcar portion of MAPS 3. 

Intermodal Hub 


City, Association of Central Oklahoma 

Governments (ACOG), COTPA, 

ODOT and the state legislature to 

develop and fund an intermodal 

hub at the present Santa Fe 

Station that will effectively 

integrate various modes of 

transportation and enhance 

economic development 

opportunities. 

Heartland Flyer 

Passenger rail service 

is a key component to 

the development of the 

Oklahoma City’s intermodal 

hub and the future development of 

commuter and light rail throughout 

the metropolitan area. The Chamber will 

work with our Congressional delegation, the City of 

Oklahoma City, ACOG and ODOT to oppose efforts 

to reduce or eliminate the state subsidy received by 

Oklahoma to operate the Heartland Flyer Amtrak 

service to Forth Worth. 

Quiet Zones 


City to establish a Railroad Quiet Zone on the BNSF 

mainline running through downtown Oklahoma City. 

Alternative Transportation 

The Chamber encourages the construction of sidewalks, 

trails and bike lanes where appropriate. 


OKC and Tulsa Joint Legislative 

AGENDA 

The Greater Oklahoma City Chamber recognizes the 

benefits of partnerships when working to represent the 

business community and create a pro-business climate 

statewide. In 2012, the Chamber will work with the 

Tulsa Metro Chamber in lobbying the state legislature on 

the following issues. 

EDGE Endowment Fund 

The Chambers advocate protecting the Economic 

Development Generating Excellence (EDGE) fund from 

being repealed or borrowed from and support identifying 

a permanent funding source to allow the fund to reach 

$1 billion. 

DEVELOPMENT, 

ECONOMY & TAXES 

Economic Development Incentives 

The Chambers support legislation or a constitutional 

amendment to permanently address the 2009 ruling 

of the Oklahoma Supreme Court which held that ad 

valorem tax is owed on a company’s Intangible Personal 

Property (such as trademarks, patents, computer 

software, contracts, customer lists, goodwill and 

advertising campaigns). 

The Chambers support the continued implementation 

of effective tax credits as a means of maintaining 

Oklahoma’s competitiveness with surrounding states 

and to continue attracting high-quality jobs for our 

citizens. In particular, we support the Quality Jobs 

Program (QJP); the 21st Century QJP; the Qualified 

Rehabilitation Expenditures for Historic Buildings 

incentive and the Investment/New Jobs Tax Credit. 

The Chambers support funding the Governor’s Quick 

Action Closing Fund provided the safeguards currently 

in HB 1953 remain in place and measurable employee, 

salary and capital investment targets are implemented 

to ensure accountability and transparency in project 

selection. 

Oklahoma Quality Events Act 

The Chambers support full implementation of the 

Oklahoma Quality Events Act. 

Liquor Laws 

The Chambers will work with all significant stakeholders 

to examine the benefits and consequences of updating 

the state’s liquor laws. 

OCAST 

The Chambers advocate full funding for programs 

managed by OCAST, including the Seed Capital Fund 

and other programs managed by i2E, to support the 

creation and growth of small businesses and jobs in 

Oklahoma. 


Bridge Improvement & Turnpike 

Modernization Plan 

The Chambers support Gov. Fallin’s Bridge Improvement 

& Turnpike Modernization Plan to repair or replace all 

of Oklahoma’s structurally deficient and functionally 

obsolete bridges by 2019 and to expand the Creek and 

Kilpatrick Turnpikes provided that it does not negatively 

impact funding levels for education. 

Existing Road Funding 

The Chambers will defend all existing road funding; 

prevent any diversion of monies; and support increased 

funding for transportation by developing an adequate, 

comprehensive funding strategy to broaden the sources 

of funds and increase the total amount going to 

transportation statewide. 

The Chambers support efforts made by the state 

legislature to secure transportation funding and preserve 

ODOT’s eight-year construction work plan. We support 

methods to expedite the critical need for weigh station 

completion and weigh-in-motion infrastructure that 

protect road and bridge quality from overweight freight 

traveling through the state.

Workers’ Compensation Reform 

The Chambers believe additional reforms to the state’s 

workers’ compensation laws are necessary to protect 

business and improve our state’s competitive position for 

economic development. However, we believe the impact 

of the reforms enacted during the 2011 legislative 

session should be evaluated before additional reforms are 

pursued. 

Lawsuit Reform 

The Chambers believe additional lawsuit reforms 

should be considered to help foster a positive business 

environment in Oklahoma. 

EDUCATION 

The Chambers support passage of legislative initiatives 

which will enhance implementation of Gov. Fallin’s 

college degree completion plan, helping to reduce and 

eliminate Oklahoma’s critical shortage of highly skilled 

and educated workers. 

The Chambers support passage of the legislation that will 

allow the State Department of Education to create an instate 

grant program to encourage incentive programs. 

The Chambers support legislation to define curriculum 

and academic requirements that will allow students 

(older and secondary) to earn academic credit via online 

courses. We support legislation only if online education 

providers meet academic content, rigor and assessments 

requirements similar to public schools. We also support 

legislation that clarifies the rules governing online/virtual 

schools, enrollment periods and that creates transparency 

for providers, school districts and parents. 

The Chambers support legislation that facilitates 

increasing instruction time in the classroom and time 

on-task. This may include additional days and/or 

additional hours in the instructional day. 

The Chambers support utilization of the National Board 

Certification (NBCT) model as a basis for creating high 

performing teachers but encourage these reforms: 

• pay teachers who previously qualified for NBCT 

stipends for the remainder of their certification, 

plus years missed. 

recommit to offering NBCT scholarships for 

teachers to pursue certification and/or recertification, 

with a cap to contain costs. 

• phase-out NBCT stipend as the certification hits 

the 10-year expiration date. 

• invest in a pilot, whole-school professional 

development model. 

• initiate discussion of pay-for-service stipend 

model for future NBCTs.

IMMIGRATION 

The Chambers oppose illegal immigration. We support 

an improved immigration process that promotes the 

ability of students and workers to enter the United 

States lawfully and allows employers to accurately verify 

the status of employees through a federal database. The 

Chambers believe that immigration policy should be set 

by the federal government and support comprehensive 

reform at that level that recognizes the need for essential 

workers so the U.S. can continue to attract the best and 

brightest talent from around the world. 

PENSION REFORM 

The Chambers support protecting and strengthening 

the financial condition of the state’s pension plans by 

requiring existing pension benefit obligations to be 

satisfactorily funded before adopting additional benefit 

improvements. 

FEDERAL 

The Chambers will encourage members of Congress to 

restrict federal agency rulemaking authority so that rules 

potentially resulting in a strong detrimental economic 

impact to the business community are required to 

produce a proven environmental benefit in order to be 

passed. This includes, but is not limited to, regulatory 

initiatives related to the regulation of ozone levels, 

carbon and greenhouse gases and water. 

The Chambers support fair and equal treatment of local 

business through the passage of the Marketplace Fairness 

Act, allowing collection of sales tax from online sales and 

preventing the further erosion of our local merchants’ 

competitiveness. 

The Chambers support timely reauthorization of the 

multi-year surface transportation act and securing 

a permanent and adequate funding solution for the 

Highway Trust Fund. 

The Chambers will work to attain Center for 

Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) approval of 

the Supplemental Hospital Offset Payment Program 

(SHOPP). 

The Chambers support the development of an 

intermodal transportation system, including streets, 

transit, express buses, ports, airports, and rail. 

HEALTHCARE 

The Chambers support the creation of an Oklahoma-led 

and private sector-based state health insurance network 

that will provide a marketplace for Oklahomans and 

serve to prevent the imposition of burdensome federal 

mandates upon the State of Oklahoma required under 

the current federal health care law. 

Because HB 1381 (the SHOPP Act) expires in 2014, 

the Chambers support a long-term solution to fund the 

state’s Medicaid through full reimbursement funding for 

Medicaid services provided to the federal upper payment 

limit (UPL). The Chambers further support setting the 

Medicaid reimbursement rate for physicians at no less 

than 100 percent of Medicare rates. 

The Chambers oppose new health insurance mandates 

and liability that will undermine an employer’s ability 

to provide quality health insurance at reasonable cost to 

employees. 

The Chambers support incentives to recruit and retain 

primary care physicians and allied health professionals 

in Oklahoma, especially in rural and underserved areas, 

through expansion of residency programs in the state’s 

medical schools, scholarships, loan forgiveness and other 

incentives. The Chamber further supports efforts to 

identify new funding streams dedicated to this initiative. 

The Chamber also partners with the Central 

Oklahoma Regional Advocacy Alliance (CORAA), 

a regionally-focused advocacy group composed 

of Greater Oklahoma City area chamber of 

commerce executives and business leaders that 

is dedicated to active dialogue and engagement 

on core issues impacting the economic health of 

central Oklahoma. 

In 2012, the Chamber will work with CORAA 

and its members to advocate on behalf of key 

issues such as federal air quality standards; 

transportation infrastructure funding; and the 

protection of water supplies.

The Research Institute for Economic Development 

SCORES 

The Research Institute for Economic Development 

(RIED) evaluates voting records of legislators in the 

Oklahoma House and Senate to determine their support 

for business, jobs and economic growth legislation. 

Founded in 1997 by business, industry and financial 

leaders across the state, RIED is a non-partisan 

organization endorsed by the Greater Oklahoma City 

Chamber, the Tulsa Metro Chamber and The State 

Chamber. 

The results of the evaluation are published in an annual 

study. 

The 2011 study showed strong support for economic 

growth in both the House and Senate. This year, 64% 

of the House and Senate earned passing scores. When 

RIED released its first evaluations in 1999, only 35% of 

Oklahoma’s legislators supported business and economic 

growth issues. 

Legislators’ RIED scores for 2005-2011 are listed 

alphabetically in the table below. Scores of 70 or more 

reflect a pro-business voting record. Scores below 70 

represent a voting record against pro-business measures. 

These scores are shown in RED.

OKLAHOMA STATE 

GOVERNMENT 

Election carried out by State 

Election Board 

(405) 521-2391 

Oklahoma’s state government consists 

of the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial 

branches. The executive offices are elected 

to four-year terms, except for the Corporation 

Commissioners, who are elected to staggered 

six-year terms. 

Oklahoma’s bicameral legislature is 

composed of 48 State Senators and 101 State 

Representatives. Senators serve staggered 

four-year terms. Elections for odd-numbered 

Senate districts will be in 2012. All seats in 

the House of Representatives are elected 

every two years. 

The state is divided into nine Supreme Court 

judicial districts, with three judges elected 

every two years during the general elections.

www.oklahomacounty.org 

The administrative body of Oklahoma County is the Board of County 

Commissioners, which was created by the Oklahoma Legislature. Oklahoma 

County, like all counties in Oklahoma, is divided into three districts. The 

districts are as equal in population as possible, numbered 1, 2, and 3, and 

subject to alteration by the Oklahoma Legislature not more than once every 10 

years. One commissioner is elected from each district for a term of four years. 

Elections are held every two years, beginning with a primary on the last 

Tuesday in July. The run-off is held on the fourth Tuesday of Aug., and the 

general election is on the first Tuesday following the first Monday in Nov.

OKLAHOMA CITY GOVERNMENT 

www.okc.gov 

Oklahoma City is governed by a council/manager system established by 

an amendment to the city charter in 1927. The charter, adopted in 1916, 

originally called for a commission form of government. The mayor and 

eight city council members are elected to four-year terms. In order to keep 

continuity within city government, half of the council is elected every two 

years. The city is divided into eight wards. The voters of each ward elect a 

council member to represent them, and the mayor is elected at large. The 

mayor and the council appoint a city manager to serve as the city’s chief 

administrative official. 

Primary elections are held the first Tuesday of March. The general election is 

held the first Tuesday of April. The filing period is neither more than 29 days 

nor less than 24 days before the primary election. Elections for the city wards 

are always held in odd-numbered years, while the mayoral election is held in 

an even-numbered year. Elections for 2011 are as follows:
