I left the Department of Justice to run for Attorney General because corruption is running rampant through our elected offices. Throughout my career as a federal prosecutor, I spent my time taking down cartel leaders, violent prison gangs, and mafia bosses.

My first op-ed! I believe improving reading scores requires us to also address the root challenges—funding, teacher certification, retention, and support, and the mental health and economic barriers our students face. We can’t solve one without the other.

National politics are a dumpster fire. Good local representation is important and we have it in #HD88. Thanks for all your hard work @epogeokc!

Maybe I was onto something?! While the AG and Ethics Commission didn’t find that Walters broke the law, it’s clear he’s used his position for personal gain. He was never in it for the kids.

@epogeokc requested an AG opinion and filed a formal complaint with the Ethics Commission about Walters' use of his official state letterhead to promote an alternative to "woke teachers' unions," potentially violating more ethics rules. #oklaed https://t.co/EiPverEpDI

This story really made my day! I’m just wondering how long RW thought he could coast on his totally real, definitely not made-up ā€˜qualification test for woke teachers’ … which also happened to be completely unnecessary. šŸ˜‚

Take time to listen to this story. It highlights Oklahomans directly impacted by deportation and raises deep concerns—ones I share—that these actions are going beyond what was originally outlined. It’s deeply troubling.

Happy to work towards this goal, but the reality is that Walters' approach is an unfunded mandate.ā€

The CEP allows schools to use federal funds to offer no-cost meals to students. The deadline to apply for CEP was June 30—meaning this new potential mandate arrived too late, and our state won’t have the chance to prioritize this in the budget until next year.

Celebrated the 4th by serving as a parade judge! There was something oddly therapeutic about showing up in the rain especially after yesterday’s vote, which still weighs heavy on my heart. But even when it’s hard, we keep showing up.

And just like that, it passed. 🤬😫 Poverty is not a personal failure — it’s a policy choice. This bill guts the safety net and abandons people who are already struggling to survive. We should be fighting poverty, not putting people in poverty.
