State Question 832 is a permanent, uncapped mandate that will crush small businesses and family farms with price hikes and lost jobs
OKLAHOMA CITY (May 26, 2026) – Following the launch of NFIB’s statewide campaign urging Oklahomans to vote no on State Question 832, the state’s leading small business organization released new radio and digital advertisements warning against an uncapped minimum wage increase. If approved, State Question 832 would drive up prices, eliminate jobs, and harm small businesses and family farms.
“As costs continue to skyrocket, Main Street businesses and family farms are doing everything they can to keep their lights on, their employees paid, and their prices competitive,” NFIB State Director Jerrod Shouse said. ”But State Question 832 will force our small business owners to make painful decisions. Do they cut employees? Offer fewer hours? Or close up shop completely? Those are terrible choices for Oklahoma. On June 16th, we’re urging Oklahomans to stand with small businesses and our farmers and vote no on State Question 832.”
