Economy & Jobs

As a successful small business owner, Al knows that small businesses are the backbone of the Oklahoma economy. That is why he supports tax incentives that would spur small business growth and economic development and put more Oklahomans back to work. He strongly opposes tax breaks for corporations that move jobs overseas and believes we should use those tax breaks for employers who expand here in Oklahoma.

Al works hard to ensure that Oklahoma taxpayers are getting their money’s worth from their state government. As a champion for hard working, middle class families, Al has fought against reductions in benefits for our teachers, law enforcement officers and thousands of other state employees.

As Assistant Minority Floor Leader and a member of the Economic Development, Tourism & Financial Services Committee, Al works hard everyday to protect Oklahoma’s workers, create an atmosphere for economic growth and bring quality jobs back to Oklahoma.
