Miller Sends Three Public Safety Bills to Governor’s Desk

OKLAHOMA CITY – Rep. Nicole Miller, R-Edmond, carried three Senate bills through the House last week, each focused on public safety and safeguarding Oklahomans. The measures now head to the governor’s desk for final approval. The proposals address domestic violence charges, legal remedies for adults with disabilities and transit worker safety. "These bills reflect our commitment to ensuring that every Oklahoman, regardless of their circumstances, is protected under the law," Miller said. "Whether it’s a transit worker, a domestic violence survivor or an adult with a disability, our goal is simple: to ensure that justice is accessible and the law is a true shield for those who need it most." Senate Bill 541 strengthens safeguards for domestic violence survivors by classifying repeat offenses and assaults, as well as domestic assault and battery of pregnant women, as violent crimes. It also closes a critical loophole, allowing prosecutors to pursue charges in cases involving a deadly weapon, regardless of whether the weapon is a firearm. Senate Bill 731 seeks to restore and expand legal protections for adults with disabilities. This update allows statements from individuals with conditions such as dementia or certain disabilities to be admitted in juvenile and criminal proceedings, ensuring these adults have access to justice. Senate Bill 562 enhances public transit safety by aligning state law with federal definitions of "transit worker" and "rolling stock transit vehicles." In addition, the bill clarifies that assault may include any act that disrupts service or causes harm to a transit system. All three bills passed this week and would take effect Nov. 1, pending the governor’s approval.

House Honors Alzheimer's Awareness Advocacy Day

On Tuesday, legislators and advocates wore purple and filled the Oklahoma House of Representatives in a show of support for Alzheimer's Awareness Advocacy Day.  Rep. Nicole Miller, R-Edmond, and Rep. Brian Hill, R-Mustang, were joined on the House floor by Rep. Marilyn Stark, R-Bethany, and Alzheimer's awareness advocates John Pellow and Debbie Elliot. "Alzheimer’s Awareness Day is about honoring those living with this disease and the caregivers who support them every day," Miller said. "I’m grateful to everyone who joined us at the Capitol to share their stories and for my colleagues who stand with us in raising awareness and pushing for progress." According to the Oklahoma chapter of the Alzheimer's Association, approximately 70,000 Oklahomans are currently living with Alzheimer's, with over 100,000 caregivers supporting them. Hill reflected on his father-in-law's 11-year journey with Alzheimer's, sharing the emotional toll it took on each member of the family. He called for continued investment in care and research for treatment and potential cures, stressing the hereditary nature of the disease and its lingering effects on families. "For the families that are here today representing those that they love that are affected, my hope is that we will continue as a state and as a nation to invest in care, but also invest in possibilities of treatment and an eventual cure of this disease," Hill said. "It truly leaves a lasting mark on families, and with it being hereditary, for those families who deal with this, there's always a cloud by which we consider our futures." Miller said Alzheimer's Awareness Advocacy Day helps raise awareness of the disease's impact across the state and encourages policies that better support those with the disease and their caregivers. Alzheimer's is a brain disease that causes a slow decline in memory, thinking and reasoning skills. To find resources, including the 10 early signs of the disease, visit alz.org/oklahoma .

Miller Leads Aerospace Town Hall on Industry Growth

OKLAHOMA CITY – Rep. Nicole Miller, R-Edmond, was joined by industry leaders, business owners and policymakers for a town hall event discussing the future of aerospace, aviation and defense in the House chamber. Over 1,200 Oklahomans visited the State Capitol on Wednesday, April 2 for AERO Day. The 2025 AERO Oklahoma Aerospace Town Hall, moderated by Miller, focused on key industry trends including space commercialization, Advanced Air Mobility technologies and Oklahoma’s role in the evolving aerospace landscape. Attendees traveled from across Oklahoma and as far as Washington, D.C., Texas, Kansas, Arkansas, Tennessee, Virginia and Utah to take part in the conversation. "It was an honor to welcome industry professionals to the Capitol to discuss the future of aerospace in Oklahoma," Miller said. "These conversations help state leaders understand where we can support innovation, workforce growth and economic development. Miller serves as the chair of the House Appropriations & Budget Subcommittee on Transportation, which oversees state funding for the Oklahoma Department of Aerospace & Aeronautics and the Oklahoma Space Industry Development Authority. The town hall also explored the business aviation sector’s efforts to enhance safety in the national air transportation system and Oklahoma’s preparation for vertical takeoff and landing aircraft. A major focus of the discussion was the state’s leadership in maintenance, repair and overhaul, or MRO, operations. Representatives from AAR Corporation at Will Rogers World Airport shared their vision for advancing innovation and sustainability in the engine MRO sector and discussed how policymakers can support industry growth. Industry experts speaking on the panel included Mark Miner from American Airlines; Gabe Sherman from The Artemis Group; Greg Brown from Vertical Aviation International; Steve Hadley from the National Business Aviation Association; Keith Rash from Consolidated Turbine Specialists/Kratos; Mandy Trainer from The Boeing Company; Stan Mayer from AAR Corporation; and Grayson Ardies from the Oklahoma Department of Aerospace and Aeronautics. In addition to the panel discussion, dozens of industry representatives set up booths throughout the Capitol, giving attendees the opportunity to network and learn more about aerospace initiatives and advancements. Over the past decade, Oklahoma has experienced a 125% increase in aerospace exports. The Oklahoma Department of Aerospace and Aeronautics plans to host the event again next year to ensure aerospace and defense remain key priorities in the 2026 legislative session.
