Oklahoma Budget Is Largest In State History

Republican leaders in the Oklahoma House and Senate have announced an agreement on a $9.8 billion state spending plan. The deal announced Tuesday would be the largest budget in state history, an increase of nearly 10% over last year's spending plan. Unlike previous years, Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt wasn't a part of Tuesday's announcement. His office didn't immediately respond to a request for comment on the spending plan. Two years ago, Stitt vetoed key pieces of the budget proposal, prompting lawmakers of his own party to override his vetoes. Among the key provisions of this year's budget is a plan to send cash payments of $75 to each individual taxpayer and $150 to married couples who file jointly.
