he is working with ag groups in building the
Coalition that will seek a "Yes Vote" on State

We
will be talking about the building of the team
that will ask Oklahoma voters to approve this
measure- and how agriculture in the state is
coming together to get this done.

The
Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association (OCA) honored
Oklahoma's Attorney General Scott
Pruitt as the OCA Distinguished Service
Award honoree. The award was presented last week
during the 63rd Annual OCA Convention and Trade
Show in Midwest City.
"General
Pruitt's strong stance against the EPA's assault
on private property rights in unparalleled," said
Charlie Swanson, OCA President.
"On July 8th, Attorney General Pruitt filed suit
against the EPA for their redefinition of the
Clean Water Act through the proposed Waters of the
United States (WOTUS) rule."
"General
Pruitt also knows the deceitful tactics of special
animal rights groups like the Humane Society of
the United States (HSUS) and has fought hard
against their false and misleading fundraising
schemes," added Swanson.
