Dislikes
Would connect state agencies, higher education institutions, and private industry partners to align workforce development, site readiness, infrastructure planning, and federal engagement strategies. Archer said the goal is to ensure Oklahoma is prepared to compete when federal agencies such as the U.S. Department of Energy, NASA, or the U.S. Department of Defense consider new research facilities. Would identify and prepare potential sites, align workforce pipelines, and assemble infrastructure and INCENTIVE PACKAGES needed to attract federal investment. (NO MORE INCENTIVE PACKAGES FROM THE TAXPAYERS TO INDUSTRIES THAT SHOULD STAND ON THEIR OWN!)
Absolutely NOT!!
