Show Notes
Andy and Scott return from break and jump right into the issue that's taking up all the oxygen in Oklahoma politics right now - education. Specifically, why is State Superintendent (and Education Secretary) Ryan Walters all over the news this week?
- Ryan Walters presented his budget to the State Board of Education (NonDoc)
- Why OK is paying the State Superintendent More Than the Governor (Oklahoma Watch)
- Thousands of bills filed this year, roughly half of which are shell bills.
- We’re watching several that deal with the Initiative Petition process, elections, voting, and more.
- Also, an honorable mention news story from earlier this month: In what should be a shock to no one, OSDH is taking back control of Public Health Lab (The Frontier)
