A bill, House Bill 1780, that would give public school teachers
a raise has passed by a vote of 94-0 on Thursday.
This bill gives teachers a raise of $1200 across the board and this is in addition
to the pay raise given during the 2018 legislative session. This bill helps Oklahoma get closer to that
goal. House Republicans have made a commitment
to our teachers and will follow through. Better pay not only shows our teachers that
they are valued, but it also helps us recruit and attract new teachers to the
profession and retain the experienced teachers we already have. This raise
is going to the Senate and moving forward a key part of Govenor Kevin Stitt’s first- year agenda.,
Our students need additional dollars dedicated
to the classroom for textbooks and better technology. House Republications have
several bills coming down the road to help get that done this session.
