RELEASE: House Elects Speaker, Speaker Pro Tempore

OKLAHOMA CITY – The Oklahoma House of Representatives today elected Rep. Kyle Hilbert, R-Bristow, as Speaker of the House and Rep. Anthony Moore, R-Clinton, as Speaker Pro-Tempore for the 60th Legislature. 

"I am excited and deeply humbled to serve the state of Oklahoma in this capacity," said Hilbert. "This is not a responsibility I take lightly. Our state faces enormous challenges. Many of these won’t be solved overnight or even during our time in the Legislature. But our calling is greater: to tackle generational challenges, even if we don’t see the solutions come to fruition during our tenure.” 

The Speaker of the Oklahoma House of Representatives is the body’s chief presiding officer and is responsible for committee appointments, the flow of legislation and the management of the House budget and staff. The speaker also serves as an ex-officio voting member on all House committees.  

In Hilbert's eight-year tenure in the House, he has authored over 40 bills that have been signed into law. Oklahoma’s budget is in better shape than it has ever been and the budget negotiation process is more transparent than ever, due in part to Hilbert’s efforts as Vice Chairman of the Appropriations and Budget Committee and his previous leadership positions. 

Hilbert, 30, will be the youngest House speaker in Oklahoma state history and only the second Republican speaker 30 years old or younger in any state since 1873. Hilbert was elected in 2016 to represent House District 29, which contains portions of rural Creek and Tulsa counties. He holds a bachelor's degree in agribusiness and a master’s in business administration from Oklahoma State University, where he also served as Student Government Association President. 

Hilbert and his wife, Alexis, have two daughters, Addison (5) and Dorothy (2). The family lives in Bristow and are members of Foundation Church in Sapulpa. 

The Speaker Pro Tempore is the second-highest ranking officer in the House and assists the Speaker in managing the legislative agenda, guiding bills through the legislative process and coordinating with committees. 

"I am truly grateful for this opportunity given to me by my peers and I am eager to get to work with Speaker Hilbert," said Moore. "Together, we will focus on strengthening our state's economy and addressing the needs of all Oklahomans—whether in schools, on our roads, in hospitals, workplaces, or public service agencies. The best days for Oklahoma are still ahead." 

Moore was elected to the House in 2020. He most recently served as chair of the House Higher Education and Career Tech Committee as well as a member of the Appropriations & Budget Committee, among others. During his time in office, he has voted on legislation to protect life and the Second Amendment, reduce rules and regulations, lower taxes, defend property owners' rights, preserve water resources, and protect girls' sports and parental rights. He's demanded law and order and voted to improve education and teacher pay, among many other conservative causes. 

Moore is a fifth-generation native of Custer County. He's a graduate of Clinton High School and holds a bachelor's degree from Oklahoma Christian University and a law degree from Oklahoma City University. He and his wife, Rachel, and their three children, live in Clinton. 

The 60th legislature will convene on Monday, February 3, 2025, for the first regular session.

House Moves Nonresident Hunting Lottery Legislation to Governor

OKLAHOMA CITY – Rep. Jim Grego, R-Wilburton, on Monday secured passage of a bill that will create a lottery system for nonresidents seeking a hunting, killing or trapping permit with the Oklahoma Wildlife Conservation Commission. Senate Bill 448 requires out-of-state hunters to pay a $100 permit fee in addition to the traditional hunting license fee to use refuge or wildlife management areas maintained by the commission. The measure now moves to the governor for his consideration of signing it into law. "This just allows the Wildlife Conservation Commission to know who is hunting in the areas they maintain," Grego said. "If they have more hunters than can be managed at one time, this allows the commission to establish a lottery system." Grego explained this can be done on a case-by-case basis for specific areas maintained by the Wildlife Conservation Commission. It does not affect in-state residents or private land. Sen. Warren Hamilton, R-McCurtain, is the principal Senate author of the bill. “The passage of Senate Bill 448 marks a significant step forward in safeguarding Oklahomans’ access to our state’s wildlife management areas," Hamilton said. This legislation prioritizes the rights of our citizens while continuing to welcome visiting outdoorsmen from other states through the lottery system and permitting process outlined in this bill. I am grateful for the support of my legislative colleagues and look forward to seeing this measure signed into law.”

Bill to Keep Businesses Open During Pandemics Sent to Governor

OKLAHOMA CITY – Rep. Kevin West, R-Moore, on Monday won passage of legislation that prohibits the governor from closing any business during a pandemic without documented scientific evidence that the nature of the business actually contributes to the spread of the disease. Senate Bill 672 now moves to the governor's desk for his consideration of signing it into law.   "This bill is not about actions taken in the past, but about how we're going to move forward as a state to protect the free enterprise of our business owners in the same way we allow the public the freedom to choose how best to protect themselves," West said. "What this bill does is ensure that due process will be afforded business owners even during a state of emergency." Sen. Julie McIntosh, R-Porter, is the principal Senate author of the bill. "The passage of SB672 is a significant step toward ensuring that our small businesses are not unduly burdened during emergencies," she said. "This legislation guarantees that any decision to close a business is backed by clear evidence and due process. It's about safeguarding the rights of our entrepreneurs while still allowing for necessary public health measures. I appreciate my colleagues in both chambers for supporting this commonsense measure." West said the language of the measure fits with Article Two, Section Two of the Oklahoma Constitution, which guarantees all persons have the inherent right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness and the enjoyment of the gains of their own industry.  According to the language of this bill, the governor would still have the ability to close businesses during a pandemic to protect public health if there is scientific evidence that a particular business is a contributor to the spread of the disease. The governor would have to give notice and the opportunity for a hearing for any business determined to be nonessential or determined to be detrimental to public health. This would give the business a course of action to plead their case and possibly stay open. West said during the initial onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, many small businesses across the state were forced to close even as larger businesses were allowed to remain open. Other businesses, such as restaurants or bars were forced to close after certain hours even though no scientific proof was presented that the spread of the disease was more prevalent at one time over another. These policies were devastating to businesses owners, forcing some to close or lay off staff, and it hurt the overall economy of the state. He said there is no evidence the policies did anything to stop the spread of the disease. The bill passed in the House on a vote of 74-15. If signed into law, it would become effective July 1.
