Scott Brockman was a 2014 Independent candidate for District 46 of the Oklahoma House of Representatives.

Campaign themes

2014

Brockman's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[1]

Education

  • Excerpt: "If elected, education will be a top priority, and I will work to empower teachers, administrators and children to work for what is best for all involved. I think there has been a disturbing trend over the past several years to denigrate teachers as failures, dismiss administrators as overpaid do-nothings, and to tell our kids how dumb they are. This is no way to run a successful education system, and we must immediately change this mindset if we want to start seeing results."

Infrastructure

  • Excerpt: "More feasibly, we need to reexamine our public transportation to ensure that our disabled and elderly have efficient and viable ways of traveling within our cities and our state. Ultimately, our state government should work with local governments and private industry to develop a plan for improving our infrastructure to meet 21st century needs, and we must plan ahead rather than constantly be behind."

Minimum Wage

  • Excerpt: "I don't want to hurt businesses or increase the price of products we all purchase, so I would need to look at how a minimum wage bill would be crafted and how much the increase would be. I think there is something reasonable that we can do to strike a balance between helping those whose wages no longer cut it in today's world and not crippling our small businesses. We should work together to find a result that both sides can live with."

Poverty and Low-Income Oklahomans

  • Excerpt: "As a Government and as people, we need to love these brothers and sisters and care about their well-being. If we do that, then we can find common sense solutions that strike a balance between assistance, but not dependency."

Mental Illness

  • Excerpt: "As your Legislator, I will work on legislation to ensure that DMHSAS is adequately funded and to craft ways to work with local and community groups working with those who need help. As a government, we must reach out to local groups to see what they need and how the Government can help them achieve their goals."
