Oklahomas Path to Prosperity
OUR STARTING POINT Our families, communities, and businesses dependon our state and local governments to help:
Educate our children and train our workforce;
Protect our streets and investigate crimes;
Maintain and upgrade our roads and bridges;
Pay for the medical care provided by private doctors, nurses,therapists, home health aides, hospitals, etc.
Ensure we have clean water and air;
Promote our small towns, rural areas, artists, and investors;
Support those at risk of harm and abuse.
We cannot reach our goals and thrive as a statewithout effective public structures and systems.

Oklahomas Path to Prosperity
We Already Lag Behind Our average teacher pay is 42nd in the nation (2007);
We rank in the bottom 10 states in smoking, obesity, job-relateddeaths, access to health insurance and doctors, and days lost tomental and physical illness (2007);
We are 4th in total prisoners per capita and 1st in female incarceration
rates (2009);
We rank 9th worst among the states in road condition, with 29.5%ofroads in mediocre or poor condition (2005).
The ongoing state budget crisis threatens a serious andlong-term corrosion of our public structures that will weaken
our prosperity, security and well-being.

Budget Trends: FY 10 FY 12
FY 11 Budget: The Challenge Escalates 2010 Session focused on which, if any, revenue measures wouldbe adopted to bridge the budget gap.
FY 11 budget gap exceeded $800 million - assumingmaintenance of FY 10 budget cuts, the use of all remainingstimulus funds, and 3/8ths of Rainy Day Fund.
Equivalent to an additional 12 percent cuts to all agencies ofstate government beyond the cuts already enacted.
Agency scenarios of how to absorb cuts of an additional 7.5percent to 15 percent in FY 11 left no doubt of the grave threatsthat would be posed to the state economy and to the health and
security of Oklahomans. Many cuts would be multiplied by loss of federal matching
funds.
