Dr. Brown is committed to bringing better health care to District 99 by increasing access for every resident. I will work to lower insurance premiums and reduce co-pays so families can afford quality care.  

 Despite a statewide vote enshrining Medicaid expansion into Oklahoma’s Constitution, radical conservatives in the state government are trying to kill it. In the State House, I’ll fight to secure sustainable funding for Oklahoma’s Medicaid program (SoonerCare) to protect the most vulnerable.

I believe a strong Oklahoma begins with strong classrooms. Oklahoma’s public schools deserve reliable funding, its teachers deserve competitive pay and educators deserve a voice at the table. I will fight to increase school funding so every child has access to a safe classroom, up-to-date materials and the support they need to succeed in the modern economy. 

For too long, Oklahoma’s seniors have carried the weight of building its communities, now it’s our turn to protect them. I will fight to guarantee safe, affordable housing for Oklahoma seniors, expand access to quality healthcare (including long-term care) and strengthen state support services so they can remain independent and secure in the homes and towns they love.

Oklahoma’s criminal justice system must protect public safety while delivering equal justice for all. Right now the system is broken. I will fight to modernize policing and courts with evidence-based training, transparency and accountability. Investing in addiction treatment, mental health services and reentry programs that reduce recidivism are central to that work. 

Too many Oklahomans with mental health challenges are left behind because funding is diverted from these critical services. I will fight to restore and increase funding for community mental-health centers, crisis intervention, school-based services and accessible outpatient treatment. Every Oklahoman deserves timely, compassionate care - no one should be denied mental health treatment because of budget constraints.
