Just saw on the news where Oklahoma hired someone and opened an office in DC to make sure we get our fair share of federal dollars.

well if the gov is going to with hold funds , just dont send the gov the funds.

The story said we depend on fed money for 40% of spending. So, OK can puff out chest and talk big to federal government but will toe the line when $$ threats come.

Ok, so let's find a legislator to write and sponsor this bill. Preferably several, find some Ds and some Rs in the House and in the Senate.

Anyone got any ideas for someone who is willing to stand on the hill and raise the flag?

Don Spenser seems to have the ear of a lot of legislators.

States like Tx send the feds more money than they get back. They could easily refuse any order from DC.

Ok has folded in the past to pressure from DC. Lowering the drunk driving level of alcohol, legal age to consume alcohol and other issues.

The Militia of the State of Oklahoma shall consist of all ablebodied citizens of the United States and all other ablebodied persons who shall be or shall have declared their intentions to become citizens of the United States, who shall be more than seventeen (17) years of age and not more than seventy (70) years of age, and said militia shall be divided into three (3) classes: The National Guard, the Oklahoma State Guard, and the Unorganized Militia.

***I guess this rules me out of the militia as I'm 71 and over the age limit.........

I think the "unorganized" moniker fits quite nicely!!
