State Treasurer Todd Russ Monday released the August 2026 Economic Outlook Report, highlighting continued growth across several major areas of Oklahoma’s economy, with annual revenue reaching $18 billion and stronger activity in the energy and manufacturing sectors.
“August’s numbers show Oklahoma’s economy continuing to move in a positive direction,” said Treasurer Russ. “Annual revenue has reached $18 billion, with growth across several major tax sources. We’re also seeing some moderation in inflation, even as the labor market continues to cool.”
Analysis: Oklahoma may be approaching one of the most consequential constitutional debates since statehood and the immediate question sounds simple: Should Oklahoma hold another constitutional convention?
That question conceals several others that may be even more important. Who possesses the authority to put that question before the voters? Who should serve as delegates if the people approve a convention? Should sitting legislators be permitted to appoint themselves to the body empowered to propose a rewriting of the Constitution under which those same legislators exercise power? And how much representation should Oklahoma’s 77 counties have in a process that could fundamentally alter state government?
Analysis: School-based healthcare is no longer limited to services traditionally connected to special education. Oklahoma already permits certain health-related and rehabilitative services through schools, while federal policy is encouraging states to expand school-based Medicaid and behavioral-health services. At the same time, school-based health centers can introduce a broader healthcare-delivery operation into a public school.
The question is not whether children need healthcare. They do. The question is whether public schools should become a larger part of healthcare delivery systems, and if so, where the boundaries should be drawn.
Oklahoma State University has officially announced the location of its new veterinary teaching hospital and the site of its new Agronomy Discovery Center, marking a significant investment in the future of agricultural research, veterinary education, and animal healthcare.
