The plan I have put forward is part of a long-term blueprint for more reliable revenue estimating and greater legislative control over limited government resources to better govern for the needs of the day. The success of this fiscal blueprint relies on our ability to address structural deficiencies within the budget-making process. As outlined in the executive summary of this budget book, the state of Oklahoma currently faces substantial budget challenges. The budget I propose charts a realistic, responsible way forward for the state of Oklahoma. It asks our lawmakers to take on the serious challenges inherent in fixing a budget process in need of an overhaul. Finally, it makes strategic cuts to some areas of government while boosting resources necessary to pursuing critical improvements. I humbly ask your support for these priorities as we move into the 2017 legislative session. Sincerely, Mary Fallin Governor STATE CAPITOL BUILDING 2300 N.

    STATE OF OKLAHOMA SUBMITTED BY MARY FALLIN, GOVERNOR TO THE SECOND SESSION OF THE 53RD OKLAHOMA LEGISLATURE EXECUTIVE BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDING JUNE 30, 2013 Mary Fallin Office of the Governor State of Oklahoma To the Citizens of the Great State of Oklahoma and the Oklahoma Legislature: It is my pleasure to submit for your consideration the FY‐2013 executive budget. The plan I have put forward is a responsible budget that accomplishes the goals of reducing the tax burden on Oklahoma citizens, supporting core government functions, holding the line on spending and demanding a more efficient and effective state government. The tax proposal submitted within this budget, titled the “Oklahoma Tax Reduction and Simplification Act,” provides immediate tax relief while setting the state on a course to completely eliminate the personal income tax. It is a bold, game‐changing plan that will allow Oklahomans to keep more of their hard earned money, stimulate job growth and make Oklahoma a more attractive place to locate or expand businesses. It is also a responsible plan that benefits Oklahomans in all income tax brackets and that recognizes the need to adequately fund state services. Addressing our budget needs for FY‐2013 is only part of the important task that lies before us. Continuing to improve our educational institutions and to build a more highly skilled, better educated workforce will be essential to maintaining Oklahoma’s impressive economic growth in years to come. Included also in this budget are proposals to invest in major improvements in Oklahoma’s highway transportation system, currently ranked as one of the worst in the nation.
