OKLAHOMA – 2016 LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD

2016 LEGISLATIVE SESSION
In many ways, the 2016 session was more about what did NOT happen than what did. Multiple bills fell victim to deadlines and committee
assignments, as the budget took over everyone’s time and effort for the more intense work. Some of the most divisive environmental legislation
avoided contentious floor debates and political maneuvering by not making it out of committees or not making final agendas.
However overall, we came out VERY well this session regarding the “big environmental picture.” Almost every single “anti-wind energy” bill was
defeated, and one of the worst bills overall (SB1413 which would have required 75% of all of Oklahoma’s electricity to be produced using natural gas)
failed to get traction and died in the Senate. Despite the launch of an anti-wind organization called Windfall (backed by Continental’s founder Harold
Hamm), we saw the defeat of all of the most troubling anti-wind bills. Windfall spent a tremendous amount of time and energy spreading
misinformation about Oklahoma’s wind energy industry and hosting legislative dinners—they were even given a spot in the State Treasurer’s monthly
newsletter in March—we raised concerns about the legality of this relationship, and the State Treasurer ended up issuing a “modification to the initial
newsletter.” It did not go far enough, but it was made know that citizens are watching!
A FEW BILL HIGHLIGHTS (The Good and the Bad)
-We saw an attempt to improve Oklahoma’s solar energy market with the introduction of SB1222, the Oklahoma Solar Energy Development Act
sponsored by Senator Ron Sharp. This bill died in committee, but we expect it to be back for 2017 with input from many more interests to give it a
better shot to succeed.
-Unfortunately, the Oklahoma Scenic Rivers Commission was defunded and its duties have been rolled in to the Grand River Dam Authority via the
passage of SB1388. We have been assured the GRDA Director has expressed a sincere interest in following through on the requirements of the Scenic
Rivers Act—but only time will tell if this turns out to be a good or bad bill.
-Once again, attempts to address the earthquake issue in any meaningful way failed to get traction. As an example, HB2455 (Rep. Mike Shelton, D-
Oklahoma City) would have required schools to make earthquake planning part of its annual agenda—this bill dies in committee.
- Pipeline safety was formally addressed, and HB2444 was passed which will bring Oklahoma up to federal standards regarding violations and actions
impacting our thousands of miles of pipeline. Oklahoma ranks third nationally in total installed pipeline, so it is vital we do all we can to assure this
infrastructure is protected to avoid catastrophe.

-A Pollinator Taskforce Bill (SB1223) was left dangling in committee at the end of session, and so sadly this bill failed. We hope to push for this
legislation next year.
SUMMARY OF MAJOR LOBBY AREAS
The Oklahoma Chapter of Sierra Club, by way of a Legislative Committee, a full-time lobbyist, and the efforts of volunteers, consistently voiced our
opinions on a number of bills and issues this session. Via Legislative Alerts, emails, phone calls, and face to face meetings at the Capitol, Sierra Club
made sure that Oklahoma’s Senators and Representatives were well aware of what we were concerned about and what we believe was best for
protecting Oklahoma’s air, land, and water.
Anti-Wind Energy Efforts Pushed Back
Time and time again, we emailed, phoned, met with, and distributed our messages and materials that wind power makes a huge positive impact in
Oklahoma, and we were not going to sit by and watch misinformation lead to bad legislation. Bills like HB1549, SB1308, HB2817, HB2818, SB883,
SB1443 were all defeated, and wind energy will for the moment move forward on a firm footing. Oklahoma looks to move from 4th in the nation in
wind energy production to third in the nation over the coming year, and the oil and gas industry sees wind as a threat to its previous monopoly. 2017
WILL BE A TOUGH YEAR FOR WIND—we ask you all to be ready to help us in our efforts to share the facts and spread the truth about wind
energy’s benefits next legislative session
Slow and Steady Weakening of Environmental Conservation
Several bills were passed that while taken individually do not mean anything major, but when taken as a group make it clear the legislature is
consistently seeking to weaken Oklahoma’s environmental progress. Bills like HB2407 (removes annual reporting of overall recycling done by agencies),
HB2502 (takes away requirement that Ag Department licenses are signed under oath), and HB3116 (grants automatic assumption that agencies are
meeting energy conservation goals) all make it clear that our legislature has no interest in helping Oklahoma standing up for energy efficiency and
energy savings.
National Constitutional Convention
Calling for a national Constitutional Convention is an idea that all levels of the Sierra Club have been fighting against. Here in Oklahoma, we lobbied
against SJR4 and HJR1018 this session, but unfortunately HJR1018 was passed, and so the State of Oklahoma will now be added to the group of States
calling for a national Constitutional Convention. The reason we stand strongly opposed to this is because there are no clear rules for how a
Constitutional Convention will play out. It is most likely that the agenda would be set by the political powers at play thanks to Citizens United—in
other words, “big money” will likely lay out the agenda for any national convention, and given the current political state we have strong fears about
OKLAHOMA – 2016 LEGISLATIVE SCORECARD

what the outcome from such a convention will be. We believe weakening of the environment and renewable energy set-backs would form a large part
of any such platform.
Other Highlights
We started session early this year by holding a lobby training at the State Capitol in December of 2015. We were joined by Representative Jason
Dunnington who spoke to our group of approximately two dozen attendees about his thoughts on what makes for effective lobbying. We carried out
mock lobby sessions, and provided attendees with thumb drives containing several great articles on political engagement, lobbying and government
operations.
In addition to our day in and day out lobbying and outreach, we also joined twelve other organizations for a “SAY NO TO 809” Capitol Rally and
Protest organized by Sierra Club and sponsored by Representative Richard Morrissette. Several dozen citizens gathered and marched on the Capitol
with signs, banners, and their voices to let legislators know that the public feels left out of what takes place at the State Capitol.
Following the march and rally, the Oklahoma Chapter of Sierra Club held our annual lobby action—this year focusing on constituent lobbying. We had
some brand-new members join us, and we even ended up with one member filing her candidacy to run for office that very day!
GRASSROOTS EFFORTS
THE LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE
Oklahoma Sierra Club has a chapter-level Legislative Committee to help wade through the countless bills, to help focus where the most attention is
needed, and to help with the non-stop outreach efforts needed throughout session as well as to help make specific events the best that they can be.
THE ACTUAL GRASS ROOTS—OUR MEMBERS
The Legislative Committee works to reach all of our members who have indicated an interest and a willingness to help out with specific needs during
legislative session—whether it is a phone call, a letter, an editorial, or directly meeting with legislators, our members are the backbone of our work. This
session, we issued numerous Legislative Alerts, sent emails on high-priority Committee actions, and invitations for our media events and Lobby Day—
our members responded, and we logged hundreds of direct legislative contacts between our members and their legislators.
