Issue Position

Date: Jan. 1, 2014

As a former Special Agent of the U.S. Secret Service, Lt. Governor Lamb knows that public service has no higher charge than keeping our families safe.
In the wake of the tragedy at Sandy Hook elementary, while Washington D.C. sought partisan gain, our Lt. Governor used his public safety experience to bring law enforcement officials, educators, and lawmakers from both parties together to create the Oklahoma Commission on School Security. Under Lt. Governor Lamb's leadership, this bipartisan commission successfully passed comprehensive reforms to state law protect our most precious assets, our children, without sacrificing our most precious freedoms. Other states are now following the lead of our Lt. Governor by replicating this common sense law.
Lamb is an advocate for our rural firefighters and he is a tireless champion for the Oklahoma State Troopers. When it comes to our public safety, Todd Lamb will continue leading by example.
"As a special agent, I traveled the world and regularly worked with hundreds of local and state law enforcement groups. None compare to the Oklahoma State Troopers. They are underpaid, and I remain fully committed to ensuring the men and women putting their lives on the line to protect Oklahoma families are fairly compensated." -- Todd Lamb
