AFP-OK lauds passage of REINS bill as transformative regulatory reform


AFP-OK Applauds Senate Passage of REINS Bill
Transformative regulatory reform now heads to Gov. Stitt for signature

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK (May 1st) - Americans for Prosperity-Oklahoma (AFP-OK) celebrated the Senate passage of REINS (Regulations from the Executive in Need of Scrutiny) legislation today that will create a crucial check on the administrative state once signed into law. 

AFP-OK has been a steadfast advocate for HB2728, which will ensure that burdensome regulations from state agencies will have legislative approval before taking effect to protect taxpayers from the unchecked growth of government. 

John Tidwell, AFP-OK state director, gave the following statement: 

"REINS will be a victory for limited government and accountability in Oklahoma. We're counting on Governor Stitt to sign this landmark legislation to ensure that legislative powers reside in the House and Senate - not with unelected bureaucrats. With REINS in place, Oklahoma's elected leaders will be empowered to reduce inefficient, expensive and unnecessary laws that hurt hardworking Oklahomans.

"The United States' and Oklahoma's constitutions depend on the branches of government jealously defending their powers. We're encouraged to see our legislature take this important step in safeguarding taxpayers' dollars and interests."
