Seifried Shines for Business in Northeast Oklahoma

The State Chamber of Oklahoma is traveling around the state, visiting members and presenting its Business All-Star Awards to legislators who received perfect scores on the 2024 RIED Report.

The Research Institute for Economic Development (RIED) Report, released annually by the State Chamber Research Foundation, scores each state legislator’s individual voting record on bills related to business, industrial development, job creation, and economic growth issues. Each legislator is graded with respect to his or her vote on each bill. This year’s report gave seven legislators perfect scores for their pro-business growth voting record.

Senator Ally Seifried received a perfect score in the 2024 RIED Report. The State Chamber presented the Republican from Claremore with the award at the State Capitol. Seifried said it’s important to vote pro-growth, especially in her district.

“Being pro-growth is really important in my district,” said Senator Seifried. “I’ve got part of Mid-America Industrial Park and Claremore Industrial Park in my district. I have several career techs as well. There’s a lot of activity going on. So, it’s really important to me to keep providing them the resources and business climate they need and so that my constituents can have great jobs.”

“Senator Seifried has been a champion for the business community in her time at the legislature,” said Adam Maxey, State Chamber VP of Government Affairs. “She has been instrumental in passing initiatives to help invest in and grow our workforce to help meet the needs businesses face in our economy.”

Oklahoma’s business community has relied upon The RIED Report for a quarter century, trusting its evaluation of business, workforce, and economic growth legislation voted on at the State Capitol, as well as its rating of the legislators casting the votes.
