Oklahoma Governor

Last month, Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt ordered a large-scale sweep of homeless encampments in Tulsa.

Those displaced by Operation SAFE have found new barriers preventing them from accessing resources, and forcing them onto city property due to the order from the governor.

The governor again took aim at Tulsa Mayor Monroe Nichols and other city leaders.

Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt said the state will more aggressively police and displace unhoused people in Tulsa. The announcement was followed by quick action from highway patrol officers and rebukes from local leaders.

Muscogee Nation Principal Chief David Hill called the governor’s petition “divisive” and a waste of taxpayer dollars.

Stitt said only “half” of the Forestry Service’s resources were deployed during the state’s worst wildfire outbreak, which he described as “the perfect storm of high winds, low humidity and drought conditions.”

Oklahoma attorney general and 2026 gubernatorial candidate Gentner Drummond says he’s different from current Gov. Kevin Stitt. That was partly the message delivered to the American Indian Chamber of Commerce of Oklahoma on Monday.

Governor Kevin Stitt gave his annual State of the State address Monday to a joint session of the Oklahoma Legislature.

Oklahomans will decide in 2026 on their next governor, and one prominent Tulsan thinks it’ll be a tough race.

Drummond voiced strong support for law enforcement and President-elect Donald Trump.
