Revenue Raising Bills, Save Our State Budget & Four-Day School Weeks

This Week in Oklahoma Politics, KOSU's Michael Cross talks with Republican Political Consultant Neva Hill and ACLU Oklahoma Executive Director Ryan Kiesel first off about the tragic news on the passing of State Representative David Brumbaugh of Broken Arrow, the first set of revenue raising bills passes out of a committee, and a coalition of 21 state groups provide a budget suggestion to fill a budget shortfall and run state government.

The trio also discusses a study by the State Department of Education showing little or no savings by schools for switching to a four-day week and a new national poll puts Governor Fallin's approval rating as the fifth worst in the nation.
