The share of Oklahomans enrolled in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP, better known as “food stamps”) has often exceeded the share of Oklahomans living in poverty in recent years, at times by a sizable amount, leading to concerns that fraud may be a growing problem.
But in the last year Oklahoma has begun aggressively paring down those numbers.
Analysis: Let’s hope everyone in Oklahoma can tell the difference between good, evil, and outrageous idiocy.

Governor Kevin Stitt today celebrated the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision to uphold the Oklahoma Supreme Court’s decision in Stroble v. Oklahoma Tax Commission.

It’s National Youth Sports Safety Month, and Delta Dental of Oklahoma is celebrating by providing free mouth-guards to youth athletes across the state.
Parents, coaches and league commissioners can secure free mouth-guards for their young athletes by submitting a request online. The deadline for requests is April 30, 2026, or while supplies last. Orders will be delivered in June, just in time for summer and fall sports.
