Frank Keating was inaugurated as Governor of Oklahoma in January 1995. During his first two years in office, he stood firm for fiscal common sense, launched an aggressive economic growth and development effort, won record tax cuts, and initiated a series of historic reforms in welfare and corrections. Born in St. Louis, Missouri, February 10, 1944, Keating moved with his family to Tulsa before he was six months old. He graduated from Cascia Hall High School in 1962, received his BA. in history from Georgetown University in 1966 and graduated from the University of Oklahoma College of Law in 1969. Keating began his in law enforcement as a special agent of the FBI, assigned to investigate new left and terrorist incidents on the West Coast. He soon returned to Tulsa as an assistant district attorney, and in 1972 was elected a member of the Oklahoma House of Representatives. Keating won election to the State Senate in 1974, where he rose to minority leader before leaving in 1981. Keating was appointed U. S. Attorney for the Northern District of Oklahoma in 1981 and was later named chairman of all United States Attorneys. In 1985, Keating joined the Reagan administration in Washington, where he also served President Bush. He served as Assistant Secretary of the Treasury (1986-88), where he supervised the U.S. Customs Service, the Secret Service, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center; as Associate Attorney General (1988-89), where he supervised the federal prison system, the U.S. Marshals Service, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, all 94 U. S. Attorneys and Interpol; and as General Counsel and Acting Deputy Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (1991-93), where he was instrumental in restoring the department's integrity after a series of scandals. In 1994, Keating won the Republican nomination for Governor of Oklahoma. That fall, he won a three-way race by a margin of 17 points, and was inaugurated January 9, 1995. Following the April 19 terrorist bombing of the Murrah Federal Office Building in Oklahoma City, Gov. Keating mobilized relief and rescue efforts. He and his wife, Cathy, have been recognized nationally for their role in the crisis. Efforts on behalf of the Governor's Relief Fund have raised six million dollars to help bombing victims and provide a higher education for children of victims. The Keatings are the parents of three children-daughters Carrie and Kelly, both college students, and Chip, a high school student.

Murrah Federal Building in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. Timothy McVeigh, as well as his accomplice Terry Nichols, were accused of and, in 1997, found guilty of the crime, and McVeigh was executed in 2001. Terry Nichols is still serving his sentence of 161 consecutive life terms without the possibility of parole in the ADX Florence super maximum-security prison in Florence, Colorado.

  • Do Top Business Leaders Make Good Governors? a Regression Discontinuity Design
    1 Paper Presented for 5th Annual Public Finance Consortium— “Politics and Administration in Public Finance” School of Public and Environmental Affairs Indiana University, Bloomington Do Top Business Leaders Make Good Governors? A Regression Discontinuity Design Can Chen, PhD Associate Professor Andrew Young School of Policy Studies Georgia State University Boyuan Zhao PhD Candidate Department of Public Policy and Administration Florida International University Please do not cite this paper without the authors’ permission. 1 2 INTRODUCTION Recently, a growing number of politicians with prominent business backgrounds are joining the battlefield of politics, running for key positions in offices. Donald Trump is the most recent example of a U.S. president who has constructed his own successful business empire before his political life. At state level, successful business figures have turned into politics and won governorship in different states. For example, Rick Scott, the 45th governor of Florida, was the owner of Hospital Corporation of America and a venture capitalist, and Kevin Stitt, current governor of Oklahoma, was the founder, chairman and CEO of Gateway Mortgage Group. These candidates have successful executive experience as business leaders, while many of them have little or no experience in public offices prior to their governor tenure. Their professional career path distinctively contrasts with “conventional” career politicians who typically hold law degrees, start their career from legal affair positions, and climb up the political ladder gradually. State governors are key actors in the budgeting process of the states. Governors are responsible for budget development and recommendation, in which promote their policy preference. Besides, they have line-item veto power on the state budget.

The materials are arranged into the following five series: Non-Branch Davidian Incidents, Media Coverage, Investigations, House of Representatives Hearings, and Lawsuits. Identification: Collection 099 Extent: 20 boxes (10 linear feet) Language: Materials are written in English Repository: Southwestern Writers Collection, Special Collections, Alkek Library, Texas State University-San Marcos Lee Hancock Collection SWWC Collection 099 Historical Sketch On February 28, 1993 the Bureau of Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) attempted to issue an arrest warrant for Vernon Wayne Howell and a search warrant for the Mount Carmel Center near Waco, Texas on the basis of illegal weapons possession. The Branch Davidians in Mount Carmel and the ATF began a shootout that ended in the deaths of four ATF agents and six Branch Davidians. The occupants of Mount Carmel and government agencies remained in a standoff for fifty-one days until the FBI launched CS gas into the compound in an effort to make the Branch Davidians exit. The CS gas assault on April 19, 1993 ended in a fire in which seventy-six people inside Mount Carmel died, including twenty-three children. After the fire a series of lawsuits and investigations began, including the 1994 criminal trial of the Branch Davidians, the 1995 congressional hearings, and a wrongful-death civil trial in 2000.
