More than 10,000 prehistoric sites are recorded for the state, and they are estimated to represent about 10 percent of the actual number, according to archaeologist Don G. Wyckoff. Some of these sites pertain to the lives of Oklahoma’s original settlers—the Wichita and Caddo, and perhaps such relative latecomers as the Kiowa Apache, Osage, Kiowa, and Comanche. All of these sites comprise an invaluable resource for learning about Oklahoma’s remarkable and diverse The Clovis people lived Native American heritage. in Oklahoma at the Given the distribution and ages of studies sites, Okla- homa was widely inhabited during prehistory.

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.

ELIZABETH MCCORMICK* ABSTRACT This article considers Oklahoma's recent experiment in immigration regulation and examines how it is that Oklahoma has found itself on the front lines of the illegal immigration debate. The article begins with a discussion of the rich history of immigration to and immigrants in Oklahoma. It then attempts to unpack the evolution of Oklahoma's illegal immigration crisis and understand the genesis and the impacts of the state's comprehensive but perhaps exaggerated response to the perceived crisis. Finally, using Oklaho- ma's experience as an example, the article argues that a "steam valve" model of immigration federalism is no longer an apt description of sub-federal immigration lawmaking. Rather than allowing states to blow off their anti-immigrant steam, this article argues that allowing individual states to enact immigration control measures locally provides a dangerous mechanism for national anti-immigrant groups to accomplish through a state-by-state lobbying effort what they have been unable to achieve at the national level.
