Senator Standridge Applauds Operation SAFE, Urges Expansion to Norman

OKLAHOMA CITY – Senator Lisa Standridge, R-Norman, commended Governor Kevin Stitt’s launch of Operation SAFE (Swift Action for Families Everywhere). The initiative will focus on clearing homeless encampments from state-owned property and restoring order in Tulsa.

“I applaud Governor Stitt for taking decisive action to address the growing threats that homeless encampments pose to our communities,” Standridge said. “This initiative represents a critical step toward restoring public safety, order, and the quality of life that every Oklahoman deserves.”

Standridge urged expansion of the program to the City of Norman, noting public health and safety risks associated with homeless encampments in the area.

“Norman families, businesses, and law-abiding citizens deserve clean and safe public spaces. I strongly encourage Governor Stitt to bring Operation SAFE to Norman as soon as possible,” Standridge added.

Residents who wish to support the initiative and request that Governor Stitt bring Operation Safe to Norman are encouraged to contact Senator Standridge’s office by email at Lisa.Standridge@oksenate.gov.
