Coffee Comments on Senate Democrats’ 2007 Legislative Agenda

State Senate Co-President Pro Tempore Glenn Coffee, R-Oklahoma City, commented on the Senate Democrats’ 2007 legislative agenda announced today.

“I am encouraged by the positive tone of the Senate Democrat leaders during today’s announcement. Senate Democrats appear ready to abandon the obstructionism we have seen from them in the past, and seem willing to work with Republicans to find common ground on issues that can move our state forward,” Coffee said.

“Last week Senate Republicans announced our legislative agenda for an educated Oklahoma, a growing Oklahoma, a healthy Oklahoma, and a safe Oklahoma. Senate Republicans are committed to making Oklahoma a superior state in which to live and raise a family, receive an excellent education, work at a quality job, succeed in business, and comfortably retire,” he said.
