Rep. Tammy West, R-Oklahoma City, has been reappointed by Speaker Kyle Hilbert, R-Bristow, to the Oklahoma Commission on the Status of Women (OCSW), the state's official advisory body on issues affecting women.

"I’m honored to continue representing the House on the Commission on the Status of Women," West said. "The commission plays an important role in advancing opportunities for women and families, and I look forward to contributing to that work once again."

The 30-member commission was established by the Legislature in 1994 to strengthen and empower women across Oklahoma through education, collaboration and celebration. Members serve staggered terms and are appointed in equal thirds by the Governor, the Senate President Pro Tempore and the Speaker of the House.

The commission reports annually to state leaders and hosts community conversations and the biennial Oklahoma Women’s Summit. OCSW also recognizes female leaders through the Guardian Award, Kate Barnard Award and induction into the Oklahoma Women’s Hall of Fame.

West received the Guardian Award from OCSW in 2024.

"Representative West’s leadership and experience make her an excellent addition to the commission," Hilbert said. "Her perspective will be invaluable as the commission continues its mission to improve the status of women across our state."

West's term ends June 30, 2026.
