Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt signed Senate Bill 599 into law in late May, heightening the legal punishment against those who commit horrific crimes against children.
“Oklahoma is sending a clear and unequivocal message, crimes against our most vulnerable citizens, our children, will be met with the harshest consequences,” bill author Sen. Warren Hamilton said in a statement shared with Poll2Action. “I deeply appreciate Governor Stitt for signing this crucial legislation. His action reaffirms our state’s commitment to justice and to protecting children from predators who, frankly, don’t deserve a second chance. Praise be to God for having a hand in ensuring the right decisions were made in getting this across the finish line.” (RELATED: Kansas Overrides Gov. Veto, Moves To Protect Parents)
“I’m thankful for the dedication of House author, Representative Tim Turner and the Senate and House staff who worked tirelessly to advance this legislation. I am also eternally grateful to the District Attorney’s Council, especially Ryan Stephenson, who was personally invested in this measure. After his review, he made recommendations to make it one of the toughest in the nation. Together, we have taken a major step to ensure that pedophiles who commit these unspeakable acts are held fully accountable and are prevented from ever harming another child.”
