Campaign themes

2016

Miller's campaign website highlighted the following issues:

“
  • Education: As a former teacher and father of three young sons, I value the role public education plays in the life of Oklahoma and my children. Unfortunately, the budget cuts have left Oklahoma schools decimated. Since 2008, Oklahoma's per student spending has dropped 23%, more than any other state. Teacher pay continues to be the worst in the region and school districts are being forced to make devastating decisions like reducing school weeks to 4 days and laying off teachers. It is time to stand up and tell the Legislators that public education and our children matter! When I am elected, money spent on education will no longer be seen as expenses, but will be investments in our future.
  • Health Care and Mental Health: Recent Legislative cuts have reduced Medicaid reimbursement by 25%. This has forced doctors and hospitals to reduce the number of Medicaid patients they are able to see. These cuts leave several rural hospitals vulnerable to closure, which place the lives of many Oklahomans at risk. The same can be said of the many mental health programs in the state. Funding for crucial programs that stand in the gap for individuals and families are forced to close their doors. The mental and physical health of Oklahoma is worth investing in.
  • Prison Reform: Oklahoma ranks 2nd in the nation in incarceration rate and 1st in the incarceration rate of women. A recent report showed that the number of prisoners have increased by 26.4% and the number of correction officers decreased by 24% since 2000. Our prison system is in deep need of reform. New approaches to justice like rehabilitating non-violent criminals, investing in mental health, and developing prevention programs, will allow the state to reduce the costs associated with Oklahoma's prisons. This will allow those resources to be reallocated to more positive areas such as education and family services.[1]
