Americans for Prosperity Oklahoma Endorses Candidates for State Legislature

Oklahoma City, OK – Americans for Prosperity Oklahoma (AFP-OK) today announced its endorsement of the following candidates seeking election to the Oklahoma state legislature:

  • Chris Banning (HD-24)
  • Christopher Toney (SD-42)
  • Cody Maynard (HD-21)
  • Collin Duel (HD-31)

These candidates earned AFP-OK’s endorsement for their commitment to policies that improve the well-being of all Oklahomans by breaking down government barriers that stifle opportunity and stand in the way of individual success.

 AFP-OK will leverage the full weight of its grassroots outreach capabilities to support the organization’s slate of endorsed candidates.

AFP-OK State Director John Tidwell issued the following statement:

“AFP-OK will utilize its vast network of dedicated volunteers and staff to reach voters and build support for these candidates until Election Day. With inflation on the rise and education a critical issue for the future of our state, it is critical that we elect candidates who will support policies that improve lives rather than give in to the status quo.”
