Oklahoma political reform bill eyed in state legislature
A draft reform measure aims to limit political spending by state employees during elections. The bill bans employee donations to campaigns and requires disclosures, while allowing voluntary contributions but restricting coercive fundraising. The text contemplates prohibiting public funds from campaign activities and seeks to curb political influence by state workers. The proposal prompts debate on bribery, campaign finance, and the balance between free speech and government integrity.
