Rep. Deck for Norman

Suddenly, the top Google search in Oklahoma is “The Protector…” #oklaweird

Blow up your TV
Throw away your paper
Go to the country
Build you a home
Plant a little garden
Eat a lot of peaches
Try an’ find Jesus on your own

If any sexually explicit material is ever actually found in schools, at least now we’ll know who put it there. 👀😳 #oklaed

SS Ryan Walters is that weirdo youth pastor kids tried to warn parents about, but parents wouldn’t listen until it was too late. Two years ago, RW sent inappropriate materials to every legislator, and we’re still waiting on action from Republican leadership. #OklaWeird

Oh! I get it now. RW wants vouchers for PRIVATES school! #oklaweird #oklaed

Great hanging w @youngccdems last night! #okdems #youngdems

More political haywire distraction from the SS who can’t functionally perform the duties of the job. There must be more bad news coming out for him this week. 🙄

Sang the anthem to kick off the Maverick bike races this morning on #CampusCorner. Happening until 4pm today and tomorrow. #NormanOK

It’s 9:30pm and we’re still overriding vetoes. A little support from this angel who was rescued along 23rd. Grateful to be doing this work, even on the difficult days. #CapitolCat #okleg #oklahoma #normanok

Hey Oklahoma. Here’s a list of Field Office numbers for our US Senators and Representatives.

You should be able to save the pic or screenshot it.

Enjoyed speaking with CD4 Democrats about the mission and the work of our Party! Thank you #okdems!

The opportunity to put this removal of rights to a vote of the people was offered and rejected. I ask all Oklahomans to call for the Governor to veto this attack on our right to petition our government.

By passing SB1027 without amendment, the House decided that it knows better than the very voters who elected us. This is the broadest harm to self-government I’ve seen, and I believe we will regret this decision for generations to come.

Since statehood, when government has failed, the people have risen to action. Today, the Oklahoma House Of Representatives gave preference to the failure of government over the will of the people.

This was the vote on HCR1013, a resolution to proclaim “Christ Is King” as a state government. I voted NO to this obvious virtue signal that does nothing to advance justice, the economy, or protect folks from fanatics. #normanok #hd44 #separationofchurchandstate #actionspeaklouder

Enjoyed speaking at the Custer County Democratic Party convention this week! I spent many years organizing in my hometown-county and am always grateful to return and inspire this work. #okdems #okdemocrats #democrats

SB484 did not receive a “due pass” motion in committee, meaning it does not move forward at this time. Grateful for all who advocated against this bill. #okleg #oklahoma

Trans Day of Visibility is another opportunity to celebrate the strengths and contributions of our transgender and non-binary neighbors — to recognize all they are and all they face. Thank you for being you!

Wonderful time watching my kid at @normanschools.bsky.social All-City Orchestra and All-City 5th Grade Choir concerts! #MusicEducation was vital in my upbringing and continues to help build talented young people. #normanok #orchestra #choir

Oklahoma bill would strengthen regulations on wind farms Parts of Oklahoma could soon face stricter rules on wind farms and turbines thanks to a bill looking to strengthen regulations moved forward Wednesday following lengthy debate.

I debated against HB2751 which would create massive setback laws against wind turbines.

“This bill chooses to tell an industry that we are not looking for your massive investment any longer,” state Rep. Jared Deck, a Democrat from Norman, said.
