    1 Senate Journal First Regular Session of the Fifty-eighth Legislature of the State of Oklahoma First Legislative Day, Tuesday, January 5, 2021 COMMUNICATION November 23, 2020 The Honorable J. Kevin Stitt Governor, State of Oklahoma 2300 N. Lincoln Boulevard Oklahoma City, OK 73105 Dear Governor Stitt, Over the last six years, it has been my sincere honor to serve and represent the constituents of Senate District 22. I have done my best to be a voice for voters in Piedmont, Yukon, NW Oklahoma City and Edmond, and they believed in me enough to elect me twice to this senate seat. I’m pleased to have been a part of so many positive changes during my tenure. In 2016, voters passed State Question 792, supporting alcohol modernization which opened the door for new businesses and opportunities across Oklahoma, resulting in nearly 5,000 new jobs. With the passage of State Question 788 and the successful enactment of HB 1269, of which I was the Senate author, Oklahoma is working to reduce our mass incarceration rates and the related fiscal and social costs that go with it. I’d be remiss if I did not mention supporting the largest increase in public education funding in the history of our state in 2018 totaling almost half a billion dollars, and the subsequent passage of an additional $120M in 2019 which you championed. But more important than these, are the families who have been impacted by legislation I carried. Two bills in particular, one which standardized investigations following the sudden, unexplained death of infants in Oklahoma, and the second which delayed the release of autopsy reports to the media so next of kin would be given time to process the information contained in the reports, are some of my proudest moments of service.

    Oklahoma State Senate David Bullard State Capitol Building SENATOR Oklahoma City, Oklahoma 73105 District 6 (405) 521-5586 [email protected] December 22, 2020 To the Honorable members of the Oklahoma Congressional Delegation, As a member of the Oklahoma Congressional Delegation you have the distinct privilege and honor to count the ballots cast by the electors of the several states. It being necessary to the preservation of our republican form of government (Article, IV Section 4), and in accordance with Article II Section I of the United States Constitution, and including the standing principles of our founding documents, we request that you voice objection to, and bring arguments and evidence against the votes being cast in states where voting laws were illegally and unconstitutionally changed by executive fiat, or by judicial edict. Those states would include Georgia, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The demands on our system of government as laid out by the founding principles include the need for bold stands against the attempted overthrow of a government by illegitimate means. The voices of millions of Oklahomans, as well as millions of Americans have been canceled out by the illegal actions of these states to unconstitutionally change the outcome of an election. We the undersigned members of the Senate, believe that you have within you the power to keep the faith of so many forgotten millions who simply wish to have their elections remain free and fair. We write this request for action not in support of a single person but an untold number of millions who desire to see our long standing tradition of freedom and power, vested in “We The People”, carried out in a single election, and that the long standing right of freedom remain intact for our children and grandchildren.
