Attendees heard from Attorney General Drummond, House and Senate leadership, and participate in Q&A with lawmakers
OKLAHOMA CITY (April 17, 2023) – The National Federation of Business (NFIB) here in Oklahoma hosted Small Business Day in Oklahoma City. There, attendees heard remarks from Speaker of the House Charles McCall, Senate President Pro Tempore Greg Treat, and Attorney General Gentner Drummond. Before Attorney General Drummond’s remarks, attendees participated in a Q&A with House Business & Commerce Committee Chair Rep. Kevin McDugle and Senate Business & Commerce Committee vice chair Sen. Kristen Thompson. During the panel discussion, small business owners were able to ask questions and hear legislative updates. The event also featured a presentation from the Oklahoma Historical Society.
Following the event, NFIB State Director Jerrod Shouse said:
“It’s always a treat to have small business owners here in the capital. Our members and small business owners across the state are struggling in this economic environment, as qualified workers remain in short supply and inflation continues to put pressure on prices. Having our small business owners here to talk about the challenges they face helps our lawmakers craft better policies. We’ll continue to work with the Legislature to make it easier to do business in Oklahoma.”
