Oklahoma’s Task Force on Tax Credits and Economic Incentives is recommending a one-year moratorium on all tax credits in the state. Representative David Dank (R-Oklahoma City) says transparency and oversight are lacking in the current system. He wants legislators to clean up what has become an industry.

KOSU’s Ben Allen breaks down the Task Force’s report, and the future of tax breaks in the state, with StateImpact Oklahoma’s Logan Layden.
