OKLAHOMA CITY - Senate Pro Tem Greg Treat, R-Oklahoma City, today issued the following statement after the governor signed the state budget for FY '25.
“I am proud the Senate showed true leadership in the budget transparency process and pleased the governor decided to sign it into law, while backing down from a tax cut that would have put the state on an unsustainable financial path for future legislators. I’m also proud to have co-authored the largest tax cut in state history in eliminating the state portion of the grocery tax. Once it goes into effect, it will represent more money in the pockets of all 4 million Oklahomans.” - Pro Tem Greg Treat
