From Our Board Chair, Vincent LoVoi: Who we are

Vince LoVoi, Chair of OK Policy’s Board of Directors, is Managing Partner of Mimosa Tree Capital Partners, LLC in Tulsa.

As board chair of OK Policy, I find it necessary from time to time to speak up on behalf of the organization and its values.  Now is such a time.

self-described liberal blogger recently criticized OK Policy for linking to articles from a conservative Oklahoma news organization in our daily news summary, “In the Know.” Ironically, OK Policy has linked to stories from the liberal blogger in the past.

This presents an opportunity to remind our Oklahoma community of our core principles here at OK Policy.  Foremost, we are nonpartisan and will never subscribe to labels, left or right, red or blue, Democrat or Republican. Second, we focus solely on the betterment of Oklahoma.  Our priorities are fiscal responsibility; the fair, adequate and efficient delivery of essential services; and economic opportunity for middle- and lower-income Oklahomans .

That’s who we are and what we stand for.  We also believe that the open and thoughtful exchange of ideas is essential to good policy.  To that end, we will share ideas with any Oklahoman who shares our goals, whatever label they may or may not wear.
