OKLAHOMA CITY – Oklahoma House Democratic Leader Cyndi Munson, D-Oklahoma City, issued the following statement after House Republicans requested an investigation into the State Superintendent.
“I’m glad members of the Republican Supermajority are joining our calls for action against State Superintendent Ryan Walters,” Leader Munson said. “House Democrats have made five public attempts to investigate the State Superintendent. After a long history of allegations of misuse of federal tax dollars, inciting bomb threats and deadly violence in Oklahoma schools, and routinely ignoring the Oklahoma Constitution, it is time for Republicans to take action. Republicans hold the power in both legislative chambers and the Governor’s mansion—it is time for them to use their power to hold the State Superintendent accountable to the people of Oklahoma. We have all waited long enough.”
