OKLAHOMA CITY – In an important victory for religious liberty, the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday ruled in favor of a high school football coach in Washington State who was fired simply because he “knelt at midfield after games to offer a quite prayer of thanks.” In Kennedy v. Bremerton School District, the Court overturned several lower court decisions and held 6-3 that Coach Kennedy’s First Amendment rights to free speech and free exercise were violated.
OKLAHOMA CITY – Attorney General John O’Connor today announced another historic opioid settlement for Oklahoma—this time with three opioid distributors, McKesson, Cardinal, and AmerisourceBergen. This settlement will deliver more than $250 million to Oklahoma to combat the opioid epidemic that has deeply impacted the lives of its four million citizens.
OKLAHOMA CITY - Attorney General John O’Connor praised the U.S. Supreme Court for its long-awaited decision today overturning Roe v. Wade. That decision, Dobbs v. Whole Woman’s Health Organization, makes clear that there has never been a fundamental right in the U.S. Constitution to kill unborn children and that Roe was egregiously wrong when it was decided. Now the voices of the people, speaking for themselves and for our unborn children, can once again be heard.
