Today is Tax Freedom Day for Oklahoma.
After 122 days of working for government, our citizens finally get to keep the first dime. I would think the Democrats who control the Legislature might want to honor that day by moving on my proposed tax cuts. The Governor said the myth that Oklahoma is a low tax state falls apart when you compare Tax Freedom Days by state. At least nine other states have already had their Tax Freedom Days. Oklahoma is a middle tax state, pretty close to the national average.
