  • OVERVIEW of the OKLAHOMA LEGISLATURE Rick Fanner the University of Akron
    OVERVIEW OF THE OKLAHOMA LEGISLATURE Rick Fanner The University of Akron The Oklahoma Constitution intentionally restricts the executive branch, making the Oklahoma Governor a weak participant in the policymaking process. Collectively the members of the Oklahoma Legislature hold most of the policymaking authority in the state. When the legislature is controlled by strong leadership, these leaders become very powerful figures in Oklahoma politics. The legislature is perhaps the most important branch of Oklahoma government. The 1997-981egislature is the 46th Oklahoma Legislature. Sessions in odd numbered years are referred to as the First Session and those in even numbered years are described as the Second Session. The Constitution limits regular legislative sessions to 90 working days which must occur between the first Monday in February and the last Friday in May. The governor has the power to call special sessions if necessary. Members of the House serve two year terms and are elected in November of even numbered years. Members of the Senate serve four year terms. These terms are staggered such that one half of the Senate is elected in each statewide general election. Current senators in even numbered districts were elected in 1994, and those in odd numbered districts were elected in 1996. Leadership The two parties organize the leadership of both chambers. The majority leaders are nominated in the party caucuses and elected by their respective house memberships. The Senate is led by the President Pro Tempore and the House is led by the Speaker of the House. The Oklahoma Constitution makes the Lieutenant Governor the President of the Senate, but by tradition she only serves in that capacity on ceremonial occasions or to break tie votes.

  • Question: Do Any States Require Legislative Approval Or Some Type of Legislative Review of an ESEA (I.E
    Question: Do any states require legislative approval or some type of legislative review of an ESEA (i.e. ESSA) accountability plan before submission to the U.S. Department of Education? Alaska: Alaska requires legislative review. Arizona: Arizona currently does not require legislative approval; only legislative cooperation as required by ESSA. Arkansas: All rules promulgated by executive branch agencies in Arkansas require legislative review and approval. Plans and other federal submissions are usually discussed with the appropriate subject matter committee by the agency as an informational courtesy. Michigan: In Michigan, we do not specifically require that the Department/state board get approval from the legislature before submitting its ESSA plan. Montana: Montana had two legislators on the ESSA work group. Our plan went to the governor for review and was supposedly submitted to USDE in late December. No real legislative review or approval. Nebraska: In Nebraska there is not currently any legislative oversight regarding ESSA. I know the Department of Education is planning to keep the education committee informed, but I am not aware of anything beyond that. Nevada: As you know, ESSA requires the SEA to consult with its state legislature in developing its accountability plan. Nevada has not taken the additional step of requiring further review or sign-off by the Legislature. Oklahoma: The Oklahoma Legislature just tackled this issue last year. As part of HB 3218, the State Board of Education was tasked with developing recommendations on a “multi measures approach to accountability,” as required by ESEA. The new accountability system, as well as some new graduation and assessment requirements, cannot be implemented until the Legislature has reviewed the recommendations, which will occur this legislative session.

Contingents were called upon to support operations in Cuba during the Spanish American War, and the 1st Oklahoma Infantry Regiment fought in the Mexican Border Conflict in 1916; and WHEREAS, in 1920, the 45th Infantry Division was formed from contingents of the National Guard units of Oklahoma, Colorado, Arizona, and New Mexico.

They were credited with eight campaigns from four amphibious landings. Eight Thunderbirds were awarded the Medal of Honor. In 1950, the 45th was called to action for the Korean War as one of only two National Guard Divisions to see action in the war. Through numerous battles, at no time did the North Koreans break their lines. The unit stayed in Korea until the peace accord was signed; and WHEREAS, in 1969, the Division was reorganized as the 45th Separate Infantry Brigade of the Oklahoma Army National Guard.
