Marty Quinn is proud to serve the people of Oklahoma. Embarking on this campaign for Congress, his unique and varied experiences have prepared him to fight for our shared, common-sense conservative values, especially in times like these.

Marty and his family are longtime members of the Claremore community. For over 25 years, Marty has made Claremore and Northeast Oklahoma his home and served the community in the insurance industry.

Marty’s work ethic developed quickly on the family cattle and poultry farm and restaurant in southwest Arkansas. These early experiences served him well in his 39 years as an insurance professional, cattle rancher, and property manager. Marty’s diverse background has uniquely prepared him to be a conservative voice for all the people of Congressional District 2.

As an active community leader, Marty understands the value of service. He was first elected to the Oklahoma House of Representatives in 2010 and has served in the State Senate since 2014. For his effectiveness, Marty was elected to serve his Republican colleagues in Senate Leadership, giving his constituents a strong conservative voice in the Senate.

Marty is a proven conservative with a strong record for reforming government. He is 100% pro-life and pro-2nd Amendment. He has been named a champion for Oklahoma’s jobs and economy by the business community and has a long record of defending the state’s agriculture interests.
  • Stop the Liberal Biden/Pelosi Agenda- The Biden Administration wants to control every aspect of our lives, from how we work, what we eat, how we farm, and how we raise our families. I still believe that freedom is the best way to build a flourishing economy, happy families, and prospering businesses. I will push back against all mandates and bureaucratic control.
  • Protect the Taxpayer- I will always put the taxpayer first. Simply put, I will stop the radical liberal spending agenda, cut out the waste, and fight for a balanced budget while ensuring essential services are properly funded We cannot spend more than we have and our $30 Trillion National Debt won’t get a penny more from me.
  • Joe Biden has completely hindered the success of our energy industry which has resulted in sky high gas prices. America must stop writing checks for our international adversaries to cash and rely on our own strong energy industry to increase production, re-open our pipelines and work towards becoming energy independent once again.

Scorecards

See also: State legislative scorecards and State legislative scorecards in Oklahoma

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.
