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.

Hill Hosts Eighth Annual Interim Study on Innovation Economy, Workforce

Rep. Brian Hill, R-Mustang, convened state leaders, industry experts and innovators at the State Capitol last week to present findings from an interim study on Oklahoma’s innovation economy and the challenges facing businesses within the state. This is Hill's eighth annual study on this topic. He told attendees that he has pursued this study every year because the business landscape in the state is continually evolving. "I believe we'll be able to identify certain factors that have changed since we began this work," Hill said . "And I hope by that, we can actually find solutions to current problems for our largest employers across this great state." The study, which included presentations from the Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology (OCAST), the Oklahoma Defense Industry Association (ODIA), and the Oklahoma City Innovation District, highlighted measurable progress toward a coordinated innovation framework statewide. Dr. Krista Ratliff, president and CEO of Fires Innovation Science and Technology Accelerator (FISTA) Innovation Park in Lawton, told attendees about how FISTA converted underused real estate into a thriving defense innovation hub and is now home to 28 partners. Ratliff said she continually receives questions about how to replicate FISTA's model in other states. "No one can do it like FISTA," she added . Oklahoma Center for the Advancement of Science and Technology (OCAST) Executive Director Dr. Jennifer McGrail shared about how the agency is helping startups access capital and connections. "Our commitment is clear: innovation in Oklahoma is statewide," McGrail stated . "A founder in Woodward or McAllister or Guymon deserves the same access to the resources as does a founder in downtown Oklahoma City or Tulsa." She said OCAST has already begun to address access to capital by removing some funding barriers and are now identifying pathways that help startups move from concept to customer. She said Oklahoma needs to concentrate on moving from singular successes to a "coordinated statewide innovation economy." "The real question before us is what should come next for Oklahoma?" McGrail said . "We've proven that startups can thrive here. We've proven that investment, talent and bold ideas exist in every region. Now our challenge is to connect them, scale them and position them to compete nationally." She said that, in addition to closing capital gaps and focusing on the future, Oklahoma must begin by rewarding innovation and risk-taking rather than simply incentivizing "what's familiar and safe." Wheeler Bio CEO Pat Lucy said of the 42 new employees hired in the last year, 80% of them have been Oklahomans. He also pointed out how one of the biggest challenges their company faces is out-of-state travel, which has been a headache as they work with clients from across the country. He suggested working with airlines to increase frequency of flights to biotech hubs, like Boston or San Francisco, to help the field grow in the state. Other speakers included Petroleum Alliance President Brook Simmons; Oklahoma Farm Bureau's Amarie Bartel; Oklahoma Cattlemen's Association Executive Vice President Michael Kelsey; Oklahoma Defense Industry Association Executive Director Allyson Carson; Oklahoma Department of Aerospace and Aeronautics Executive Director Grayson Ardies; Dr. Sharon Harrison representing Harrison Consulting Group; Oklahoma Motion Picture Alliance Chair Cassidy Lunnen; Chase Beasley with Tulsa Innovation Lab; OKC Innovation District President and CEO Jeff Seymour; and Chuck Gray, chair of the Governor's Council on Workforce and Economic Development. Hill said that an innovation economy and a thriving workforce is crucial for Oklahoma. "Regardless of partisanship and all of the rural versus urban divide, at the end of the day, we all want better for our children and our grandchildren than what we had," he said . "And by investing in ourselves and infrastructure across this great state, not just two urban hubs, but literally moving our state towards the idea of 10 economic hubs [where] every kid is within one hour of an economic opportunity, that, to me, is success for our long-term play."

Tedford Reports on Interim Study of Workforce Services

OKLAHOMA CITY – Rep. Mark Tedford, R-Jenks, shared insights from an interim study examining workforce services across Oklahoma. “There are many institutions providing workforce services in our state,” Tedford said. “A measure of success for these institutions should be closer partnerships that drive better outcomes for the economy and reduce duplication or waste through braided programs and funding. Now that the study is complete, I encourage the legislature to review the findings closely to determine how best to support this work moving forward.” As a member of the Governor's Council for Workforce and Economic Development, Tedford emphasized that the focus of workforce policy should be building a sufficient and qualified workforce. “Skilled labor has virtually no unemployment and consistently earns above a living wage. Unskilled labor often struggles to make a living wage and, in many cases, does not participate in the workforce. Investments in workforce development produce tremendous returns, from a stronger economy to reduced dependence on social programs and the dignity that comes from building a career.” He also recognized the efforts of OESC Director Trae Rahill in fostering collaboration between agencies and evaluating program effectiveness. “I look forward to continuing work on workforce issues during the next legislative session,” Tedford said.
