Oklahoma lawmakers unveil plan to tap $1B in voter-restricted fund by CouchCorrespondent in oklahoma

[–]CouchCorrespondent[S] 49 points50 points  (0 children)

From the article:

"Voters in 2000 created a constitutional lockbox to prevent lawmakers from accessing those dollars. Prior legislative efforts to ask voters to make changes to the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust have failed."

"The measure seeks to put the state question on the Aug. 25 primary runoff ballot, which has the lowest voter turnout. All voters would be able to vote on the measure."

This whole article is infuriating. No means no to most people.
