Stitt vetoes tax hike

“As governor, my job is to protect Oklahomans from bad legislation that would hurt our state. This bill was passed late on a Friday night with little debate or discussion, and I cannot go along with something that is so forced in at the last hour that some legislators didn’t even know what they were voting for.” —Governor Kevin Stitt


Gov. Kevin Stitt has vetoed legislation that would have increased property taxes on numerous Oklahoma businesses, saying the legislation would “hurt our state.”
