The State Chamber of Oklahoma is hosting a tax policy forum, co-sponsored by OK Policy and the Oklahoma Council of Public Affairs. Speakers include:

  • Arthur Laffer, PhD, the author of a report being relied on by those pushing to abolish the Oklahoma income tax
  • Mickey Hepner, PhD, Dean of the College of Business Administration at UCO and a critic of tax cuts
  • State Treasurer Ken Miller, PhD, who will be moderating

The event will be held Wednesday, May 9, noon-1:30pm at the Oklahoma History Center, 800 Nazih Zuhdi Dr, Oklahoma City.
