Ladies for Liberty Oklahoma

Creates a revolving fund for the Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) for all funds related to the testing of biosolids. A MORATORIUM would make much more sense and won't cost the taxpayer $1,300,000.00.

Save Oklahoma Farms And Ranches

Absoutely NOT!!! The DEQ has claimed this was safe for over 40 years, has told individuals in their sludge districts that they "have to protec the beneficial use of biosolids" and that their priority is the water of "cities and towns, NOT people on rural water." Why are we giving them perpetual money for new toys and testing and more salaries, when they have FAILED to do their job on this for the last 40 years! You don't reward bad behavior!! They will never stop this madness if their budget is tied to keeping it going. HORRIBLE BILL. Shame on the authors and anyone voting for the continuing poisoning of Oklahomans for profit!!!
