  • Oklahoma's Elected Officials
    Oklahoma’s Elected Officials The Oklahoma State Senate There are 48 members in the Oklahoma State Senate. By law, the Lieutenant Governor is president of the Senate, but the role is limited to presiding over special sessions and casting the deciding vote in case of a tie. The law also provides that the Senate will elect a President Pro Tempore, while the House of Representatives elects a Speaker of the House. State senators serve staggered four-year terms. Senators in odd-numbered districts were elected in 2012. Those in even-numbered districts will be elected in 2014. Legislators are paid $38,400 annually, along with certain necessary expenses. The President Pro Tempore of the State Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives are paid an additional $17,932 annually, and the majority floor leaders and the minority floor leaders of each House are paid an additional $12,364 per year. The Senate occupies the third, fourth and fifth floors on the east side of the rotunda in the state Capitol. Joint sessions are held in the House Chambers. The Senate Chambers are located on the fourth floor, with the visitors' gallery on the fifth floor. President Pro Tempore Senator Brian Bingman District 12 Bingman was born on December 9, 1953, in Tulsa, OK. He received a BBA in Petroleum Land Management from the University of Oklahoma in 1976. He and his wife Paula, have three children, Annie, Blake and Rebecca. He is currently employed by Uplands Resources Inc. in Tulsa as Vice-President of Land and Operations. Bingman served as Mayor of Sapulpa from 1992 -2004 and served in the House of Representatives for District 30 from 2004-2006.

Dear Health Improvement Partners & Citizens of Oklahoma, - Henri Frederic Amiel Oklahoma ranks near the bottom in multiple key health status indicators. Many of these outcomes are related to conditions that Oklahomans must live with every day. Poverty, lack of insurance, limited access to primary care, and inadequate prenatal care, along with risky health behaviors associated with these determinants, such as low fruit/vegetable consumption, low physical activity, and a high prevalence of smoking contributes to the poor health status of our citizens. Based upon these findings, it is essential for us to work together, across multiple health care systems, to improve the health of the citizens of our state. Oklahoma’s poor health status is unacceptable and change must occur. Our goal is to make the change that, for the sake of our neighbors, friends, family, and fellow citizens, must occur. Your assistance in that process is crucial. For the past year it has been our honor to work collaboratively on the Oklahoma Health Improvement Planning (OHIP) process.
