OKLAHOMA CITY (May 23, 2024) – Attorney General Gentner Drummond commented today on Governor Stitt's veto of Senate Bill 102, a measure designed to enhance the recruitment and retention of law enforcement professionals by increasing their retirement benefits.

“I was disappointed in Gov. Stitt’s veto of Senate Bill 102, and I strongly urge the Legislature to override this action so the law can take effect," Drummond stated. "As Oklahoma's chief law enforcement officer, I will always stand with the men and women who risk their lives to protect our families. I hope legislators move swiftly to override the Governor’s veto so our peace officers can know they still have reliable allies in the state Capitol.”
