FY2019 Budget Deal, Ballot Selfies Vetoed & Bridenstine Running NASA

This Week in Oklahoma Politics, KOSU's Michael Cross talks with Republican Political Consultant Neva Hill and ACLU Oklahoma Executive Director Ryan Kiesel about a budget deal at the State Capitol could lead to an early end to the 2018 legislative session, the state House passes an amended criminal justice reform bill which makes it easier for juveniles to get life without parole and Governor Fallin vetoes a measure which would have allowed people to take selfies with their ballots.

The trio also discusses criticism growing for EPA Administrator Scott Pruitt including from fellow Oklahoman Jim Inhofe and Jim Bridestine gets sworn in to take over the top position at NASA.
