Hill’s “Credential of Value” Bill Advances from First Committee

Legislation directing postsecondary educational institutions to designate certain degrees, certificates, licenses and industry-recognized credentials as "credentials of value" has passed its first committee.  House Bill 2398 , authored by Rep. Brian Hill, R-Mustang, would establish a statewide framework allowing the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education and the Oklahoma Department of Career and Technology Education to designate “credentials of value.” To receive the designation, programs must demonstrate a positive return on investment for students and align with state and regional workforce demand.  Hill said the goal of the legislation is to ensure Oklahoma students are set up for long-term success while strengthening the state’s workforce pipeline.  "Our students deserve data-driven information about which programs will help them build meaningful careers and achieve financial stability," Hill said. "House Bill 2398 ensures education leads to opportunities for students and a strong return on investment for the state. By aligning education with real workforce demand, we can strengthen families, businesses and communities across Oklahoma."  The measure also includes safeguards to protect and support high-need workforce areas, including education and public safety, which Hill said would help keep critical government services roles strong and sustainable for Oklahoma's future. Additionally, HB2398 also requires annual reporting on program outcomes, including completion rates, employment, earnings and cost information.  HB2398 passed the House Postsecondary Education Committee on Wednesday and can now be heard in the House Education Oversight Committee.

STATEMENT: Hill Comments on Relocation of Devon, Expand HQs

Rep. Brian Hill, R-Mustang, today commented on the recent announcements that Devon Energy and Expand Energy will both relocate their corporate headquarters to Texas.  Hill, who serves as chair of the House Commerce and Economic Development Oversight Committee, emphasized the importance of continuing to diversify Oklahoma’s economy.  "The focus of the House Commerce and Economic Development Oversight Committee is on ensuring Oklahoma is prepared for the future," Hill said. "That means continuing to pursue innovative growth in our energy industry while also investing in the infrastructure, education and workforce development that allow other industries to grow and thrive."  Hill noted that Oklahoma’s economic development strategy must include expanding opportunities in varied industries and other high-growth sectors that provide stability and opportunity for Oklahoma families, such as aerospace, biosciences, advanced manufacturing and others.  "Our state's long-term economic strategy cannot rely on any single company or industry," Hill said. "A diversified economy is how we attract investment, retain talent and ensure state policy keeps pace with opportunity."

Members Recognize Alzheimer’s Awareness Advocacy Day

Members of the Oklahoma House of Representatives joined advocates, caregivers and families to recognize Alzheimer’s Awareness Advocacy Day. Rep. Nicole Miller, R-Edmond, Rep. Brian Hill, R-Mustang, and Rep. Tammy West, R-Oklahoma City, were joined on the House floor by Alzheimer's awareness advocates Dr. Laura Garrett and Colin Oetken. The lawmakers also recognized the supporters who filled the House gallery to encourage support for those with the disease and their caregivers. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, tens of thousands of Oklahomans are living with Alzheimer’s or related dementias, and many more care for loved ones affected by the disease. "The voices of families and caregivers are central to Alzheimer’s Awareness Advocacy Day," Miller said. "I appreciate the role they play in shaping thoughtful policies that improve care and support for Oklahomans affected by this disease." Hill reflected on the personal toll of the disease. His father-in-law battled Alzheimer's for eight years. "Watching a loved one struggle with memory loss is one of the hardest journeys a family can face," Hill said. "Alzheimer's Advocacy Day reminds us why our push for further research and programs matters, because families deserve to have the support and resources they need." "Family caregivers are the backbone of Alzheimer's care, often balancing jobs, children and their own health while showing up for someone they love," West said. "Their sacrifices deserve real support through policies that recognize the emotional and financial toll caregiving can take."
