We fact-checked claims about Oklahoma’s abortion ban and conflicting laws
We found inaccurate information about pregnancy and confusion about the state’s conflicting anti-abortion laws.

Despite support from some pro-lifers, efforts to soften Oklahoma’s strict abortion ban failed this year at the Legislature
Oklahoma anti-abortion lawmakers are in a dilemma: Support legislation that could make it easier for some women to get abortions, or risk successful legal challenges and backlash from voters.

For those too sick for the homeless shelter, few options in Oklahoma City

People experiencing homelessness must be able to do basic tasks like bathing or eating on their own to get a bed in the state’s only respite center. But many can’t, and the need is growing.

 

Most companies on Oklahoma’s blacklist aren’t actually subject to a state law banning ‘woke’ investing. The State Treasurer added them anyway
The Frontier found the Oklahoma State Treasurer’s office applied criteria for blacklisting companies inconsistently, leaving some firms claiming they have been arbitrarily and wrongly banned from doing business with the state. The blacklist could have far-reaching effects on everything from financing for public works projects to how state payroll checks are processed.
