OKFB is pleased to welcome Attorney General Scott Pruitt to the 2014 Annual Meeting as a keynote speaker. Pruitt will speak during the opening session of convention on Friday, Nov. 14, at 1:30 p.m.
Scott Pruitt was elected the attorney general of Oklahoma in November 2010. As attorney general, he is dedicated to fighting corruption, safeguarding Oklahoma’s vulnerable citizens, championing public safety measures to reduce violent crime and protecting the interests of the State of Oklahoma and its citizens. Pruitt established Oklahoma’s first federalism unit in the Office of Solicitor General to combat unwarranted regulation and overreach by the federal government. He is a national leader in the cause to restore the proper balance of power between the states and federal government, having served two terms as president of the Republican Attorneys General Association.
Pruitt filed the first lawsuit challenging the implementation of the Affordable Care Act, is a leading advocate against the EPA’s activist agenda, and is leading a multistate lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the Dodd-Frank financial law. Before being elected attorney general, he served eight years in the Oklahoma State Senate where he was a leading voice for fiscal responsibility, religious freedom and pro-life issues. The attorney general has also been recently involved in an inquiry into the fundraising efforts of the Humane Society of the United States.
We look forward to hearing from Attorney General Scott Pruitt and hope you will join us at the 2014 opening session.
