Good morning, Norman.
🏛️ Government
The Oklahoma Supreme Court ruled Wednesday to pause a new state law that would let appointing authorities remove board members at will from the Tobacco Settlement Endowment Trust—critics say the change could weaken the board's independence over nearly $2 billion in public funds.
The law, set to take effect August 28, will remain on hold until the court issues further orders.
