Due to the recent surge of COVID-19 cases, this year's State Budget Summit will be held online. With this change, we also have decided to offer free registration, with donations welcomed to support our work.  REGISTER TODAY Time is running out to register for OK Policy's 2022 State Budget Summit, which will shine a light on the state's fiscal outlook for the coming year. During the event, we will hear from state and local officials, tribal leaders, community leaders, and engaged citizens about the state's current fiscal circumstances, what we might expect during this year's legislative session, and where we can improve our state's budget and tax system.  We're excited to announce this year's keynote speaker is Angie Cooper, the executive director of Heartland Summit and Chief Program Officer for Heartland Forward. The Heartland Summit is the flagship convening of Heartland Forward, a Bentonville, Arkansas-based "think and do" tank focused on advancing economic performance and opportunity in the center of the country. As Chief Program Officer, Angie is focused on turning Heartland Forward's research into action, creating new partnerships, leading on policy solutions, and serving as a resource for Heartland communities. The event also will feature a panel discussion, scheduled to include: Senator Julia Kirt, D-OKC; Representative Kyle Hilbert, R-Bristow; Representative Danny Williams, R-Seminole; Joe B. Hill, Executive Officer of Governmental Affairs and Partnerships, Chickasaw Nation; and Paul Shinn, retired state and local budget official.
