Where Trump Failed, President Biden Is Delivering For Oklahoma
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK, — November 15, 2023 – Today, on the two-year anniversary of President Biden signing the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Oklahoma Democratic Party Chair, Alicia Andrews, released the following statement:
“Over the past two years, communities throughout Oklahomans have been reaping the benefits of President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law: rebuilt roads and bridges, renewed transportation programs, clean drinking water, affordable access to the internet, and more — all of which are boosting new good-paying jobs and building the economy from the bottom up and the middle out.
“Despite Donald Trump’s countless empty promises, these historic investments in infrastructure and the economy failed to materialize for Oklahomans under his watch as Trump turned “infrastructure week” into a running joke. Even Republicans who voted against the bill recognize that President Biden is delivering an infrastructure decade with no community left behind. As MAGA Republicans try to roll back the progress these investments are delivering to hand out tax breaks to the extremely wealthy and large corporations, today’s anniversary underscores how important it is that we reelect President Biden and Vice President Harris so they can continue to deliver and finish the job.” Read more...
Oklahoma Democratic Party Statement on the Oklahoma Supreme Court Ruling on Anti-abortion Laws
OKLAHOMA CITY, OK, — November 14, 2023 – The Oklahoma Democratic party is cautiously optimistic regarding the Oklahoma Supreme Court’s ruling today against some of the nation’s most extreme anti-abortion laws enacted in our state by an extreme MAGA governor and his Republican cohorts, HB1904, SB778, and SB779.
“Democrats believe that women hold the innate right to control their bodies and decide when they would like to start a family. Today’s ruling demonstrates that while we still have more to do, we can appreciate the small steps being made to protect women’s healthcare and reproductive rights in our state,” commented Alicia Andrews, Oklahoma Democratic Party Chair.
