This Week in Oklahoma Politics, KOSU's Michael Cross talks with ACLU Oklahoma Executive Director Ryan Kiesel and Republican Political Consultant Neva Hill about the political fallout over what has now become the strongest earthquake in Oklahoma history at 5.8 magnitude this past Saturday, the declaration by Governor Fallin of no special session to use $140M in surplus money for teacher raises and a lawsuit by medical marijuana supporters saying Attorney General Scott Pruitt's rewrite of their ballot initiative is biased.
The trio also discuss the newly appointed Governor's Justice Task Force created to help lawmakers initiate policies to reduce overcrowded prisons and legislators are having to pay back their campaigns after a new ethics rule says they can't spend funds on personal items like football games and concert tickets.
