  • Oklahoma State Election Board
    OKLAHOMA STATE ELECTION BOARD June 2, 2021 The Honorable Jim lnhofe, United States Senator The Honorable James Lankford, United States Senator Senators lnhofe and Lankford: As Oklahoma's chief election official, I am writing to make you aware of my concerns regarding S.1, companion legislation of H.R.1, which was considered by the United States Senate Rules Committee on May 11, 2021. In short, S.1 is an unnecessary (and constitutionally dubious) federalization of election administration policy that would negatively impact our ability to administer fair and secure elections in Oklahoma. The administration of elections should be left to the States, as the Constitution and our federal form of government intends. The justification for S.1 that I hear most often from its proponents is that it is necessary to counter new "voter suppression" la ws in the States. But the concerns about these new election laws seem exaggerated, and in many cases appear to be based on misinformation about the content of those laws. Furthermore, regardless of what is happening in other States, there is no evidence of "voter suppression" here in our state. S.1 seeks to supersede most of Oklahoma's election administration and election integrity laws. For example, it legalizes absentee ballot harvesting and makes it virtually impossible to verify the identity of in-person and absentee voters - in direct contravention of Oklahoma's election laws. S.1 also attempts to micromanage some of the most minute details of election administration, such as voting hours and polling place locations. S.1 is not compatible with Oklahoma's election deadlines.

    which is an ongoing concern, and we must not allow these issues to continue in airspace diplomacy. Taiwan is home to the eleventh busiest airport in the world, and the country’s absence in this organization ignores the public health and safety issues of global air travel. It is critical that we continue to publicly work with Taiwan and our other allies across the globe in combatting CCP influence in the region and international community, as well as continuing to build our diplomatic and defensive relationships. We are ready to work with your departments to see Taiwan included in the ICAO and the WHO, as well as to build on previous work to ease restrictions that allow us to increase our diplomatic missions to Taiwan. Lastly, we encourage you to continue to work to implement the Taiwan Relations Act and similar legislation related to Taiwan. These steps will reinforce the strength of the U.S.-Taiwan relationship and promote further cooperation between Taiwan and our other allies in the region. We stand ready to work with you on this effort and look forward to protecting the autonomy of a free, democratic Taiwan.

Thank you for your commitment to addressing the diversion of91 l fees and charges by states and other taxing jurisdictions through this newly formed advisory committee. Terry has been a 9-1-1 professional in Oklahoma for over 30 years. In 1980, at the beginning of his career, he first served as a dispatcher in Chickasha, Oklahoma. Throughout his career, he has served as communications officers and managers for cities throughout Oklahoma and has attained many accomplishments within their respective 9-1-1 centers. In the City ofNorman, Oklahoma, Terry oversaw the 9-1-1 operations and the citywide radio. Here, he integrated the City radio system into the State of Oklahoma radio network. Terry was also instrumental in the replacement of the public safety software that streamlined the delivery of services from the 9-1-1 call to call completion in Oklahoma. In 2017, Terry was hired as the first 9-1-1 Coordinator for the State of Oklahoma and is charged with coordinating and overseeing 9-1-1 efforts throughout the State. He is employed by the Oklahoma 911 Management Authority, which voted on March 4, 2021, to support his application and represent Oklahoma for the 911 Strike Force.
