Issue Position: Practical Leadership

Issue Position

Meloyde is a small business owner, an artist, a proud mother, and a longtime Tulsan - not a politician. We need a leader who will stand up for hard-working Oklahomans and put the issues first - not a political party of one flavor or another. This past legislative session, the majority party twisted arms of their own caucus members to irresponsibly pass a budget that under prioritized education and cut from dozens of state agencies, while proceeding with tax cuts in the face of an expected multi-million-dollar revenue shortfall with no plan to replace the lost revenue. It's time for our leaders to make smart decisions that push our state forward instead of hiding behind partisan ideals. Meloyde will work on both sides of the aisle to come up with common sense solutions. She knows that our community is used to having a committed, service-oriented leader at the state Capitol and is dedicated to working hard for all Oklahomans.
