Photo - How can we give Oklahoma Teachers a raise WITHOUT raising taxes? Well we could - Eliminate, for state government agencies, funding for sponsorships of NBA games and other sporting events, non-critical travel, membership in the National Governors Association and the National Conference of State Legislatures, and purchase of unnecessary “swag” promotional materials. Savings = $39.8 million ($5k pay raise for 7,960 teachers) #OKLEAD
