Speakers tell
Rotary Club to
pass SQ 777
By BRANDON ALLEE
Anadarko Rotary Club member
Lance Shenold invited Brady Bond
and Brittany Mikles to address the
club on State Question 777, also
known as Oklahomas Right to
Farm bill to be brought to voters in
November.
Bond and Mikles are both proponents of the bill and gave the club
several reasons why they believe
voters should approve this state
question.
This bill would protect Oklahoma farmers and ranchers against
special interest groups that have an
agenda.
It would not allow those groups
to push regulations that might have
a negative impact on Oklahoma
farmers and ranchers.
In Oklahoma 98% of farms and
ranches are family-owned and there
is a concern with how regulations
could impact smaller farms and
ranches. Potential regulations
might eliminate choices that consumers would have when they are
shopping for products and that
could be a problem if the lower cost
options are no longer available.
These regulations could also increase farming and ranching cost
that would also be passed on to the
consumer whenever possible.
The speakers made it clear this
bill would not stop Oklahoma law
makers from passing legislation if
there is compelling state interest
that the law would protect the
health, safety, and welfare of the
citizens of Oklahoma.
