- For far too long, Oklahomans have been waiting for the public schools and core services they deserve. Summer will work tirelessly to give everyday Oklahomans a government that works for them.
- As your representative, Summer pledges to be accessible to you. She will prioritize communicating with you about your concerns and will be fully transparent in explaining her votes in the legislature.
- Summer has dedicated her career to advocating for the needs of children and families, and she will be a leader in the fight to restore funding to public education and core services.
As a mom, Summer wants only the best for her kids and yours. She will fight for education funding to ensure that all Oklahomans have access to a high quality public education, higher education, and career tech.
Healthcare
Through her years of experience in social work, Summer has seen firsthand the suffering caused by lack of access to healthcare, mental health, and substance abuse treatment. She fully supports SQ 802, which will bring Oklahoma tax dollars back to us to expand our Medicaid program and provide healthcare to thousands of Oklahomans.
Voting YES on SQ 802 on June 30th is only the first step toward fixing our broken healthcare system.
