Campaign themes

2016

Dearmore's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

  • The education budget has been cut so deeply that I fear many Oklahoman communities may feel their lacerations for years to come. Education is our most valuable resource as a democracy, and our legislators are destroying it to give major corporations small tax cuts that help neither real Oklahomans nor real, Oklahoman small businesses.
  • The prevailing thought in Oklahoma City for the last five years has been cutting our way to prosperity. That’s akin to thinking you can grow more quickly as a whole because you cut off your fingers and toes. For the average Oklahoman it’s saved you $27 a year; for the top 10 percent, it’s saved more than $13,500 a year- that isn’t equitable.
  • For far too long, we have limited the rights of the employee. We have given employers the right to discriminate by tacit approval, if not outright consent. When employers can fire you without reason, it’s a disservice to the worker and the worker’s family who may face sudden economic upheaval in their home.
  • We need to target corporations that rely on the Oklahoman taxpayers to subsidize their employees’ food. It is the government’s job to facilitate the lives of its citizens, employer and employee alike; not to shoulder the responsibility of the corporation by paying for its workers’ needs. A fair wage will prevent that from being a problem, it would also help lower rates of employee theft and grant greater incentive for employees to do their job well.
  • Decriminalizing marijuana would have a profound effect on our justice system, saving the state huge sums of money.
