It is the unique role of the Church and home in Oklahoma to teach Christian morals and values to those that freely choose to worship how they see fit. The public school should not teach or reinforce only one of the 45,000 Christian denomination's interpretations on these values.

@JD__Baker @pastors4OKkids $40/month per poor kid… and we are worried about how to administer this program. $5,000-7,500 to rich kids and we have no problems with that program, even though it’s clear they had no idea how to administer THAT program. They approve of #Wealth -fare for the wealthy

When you elect people who desire power over service, you get entirely predictable results. #OKLeg is getting a front-row seat and #OklaEd kids will suffer.

This is just wrong. Oklahomans are better than this. We must hold our elected officials accountable for this divisive, racist propaganda. ALL #OklaEd children, regardless of skin color are created in God’s image. ALL deserve safe schools.

If you're genuinely interested in the future of all children...you absolutely do not go around screaming about porn, threatening school board members, and falsely accusing their teachers of grooming. That's not how fostering a positive community working together works. #OklaEd

Ya’ll: what if “parent choice” “school freedom” isn’t about those things at all? What if it’s really about ending free public education and shifting 100% of the financial responsibility to parents? Like, dunno…maybe the father of school vouchers clearly STATED was the plan?

Because in every state. EVERY state that has put this to a vote of the people...it FAILS. Voters do NOT want tax dollars paying for private schools. And #OKLeg knows it.

@pastors4OKkids I still want to know why this wasn’t put to a vote. This is something the people of Oklahoma should have decided.

EXPOSED: "Failing Public Schools" is a manufactured talking point from privatization lobbyists. How do parents really feel? 83% say their kid's teachers are good/excellent! #OklaEd

Did you know that unlike Gov. Stitt who constantly ridiculed OKC Public Schools, Paycom CEO Chad Richison and his wife, Charis donated $1 Million in the height of Covid to feed kids and support learning? #OklaEd

Notice #OKLeg stepping up to save #OklaEd by restricting the unbelievably immature Superintendent. It's really something to see, and Oklahomans should applaud their efforts. This is how the House should work. FOR the people.

Betsy DeVos doesn't care about #OklaEd kids. She's investing here for one reason: to push her anti-public school ideology at any cost. Literally.

So for the record, Gov. Kevin Stitt... 🚫 Does not believe in the sovereignty of tribes 🚫 Does not believe in the separation of church & state 🚫 Does not believe in public education What's next? 🫣

Understand that private school vouchers stay the same as tuition and inflation increase, public schools are simultaneously defunded leading to lower outcomes for 90% of kids, and that the end goal is to end compulsory schooling and return to the 1800s in education... #OklaEd

“School choice” isn’t about school choice. It’s about taking funding away from #OklaEd public schools. Actual school choice has existed in Oklahoma since 1907.

The great lie of “school choice” is that there is no master plan. No secret solution. Just defund, demean, and destabilize public education until vouchers are more palatable. Then drain vouchers until - poof - it’s the 18th century market driven education once again. #OklaEd
