| Collapse all
- As the product of public schools and the mom of two boys attending OKCPS Public Schools, Ellen knows the importance of our public schools to the future of our state. She knows that we need to fund our schools to the regional average, increase teacher pay, and ensure we are recruiting the best teachers to Oklahoma. Ellen also will work to ensure that every student is safe at school and feels valued.
- Medical decisions should be kept between a woman and their doctor. Ellen will fight for access to all reproductive health care options and will work to roll back our strict abortion laws.
- Oklahoma continues to push policy that targets the most vulnerable in our state. Ellen will defend the rights of LGBTQ+ and will push to reverse the criminalization of our immigrant neighbors.

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
