Oklahoma Prosperity Project
It’s About Jobs -- And Your Company’s Bottom-Line 
Leaders we elect this year will make decisions impacting Oklahoma companies' ability to compete and grow. This affects all of us -- our jobs, our economy and our families's future.

The Prosperity Project is a free, nonpartisan election education program. It does not endorse candidates. It does not tell you how to vote. That important decision is up to you.

REID Scores
 The Research Institute for Economic Development (RIED), a private sector, non-profit educational organization dedicated to the development and enhancement of a pro-business state legislature, has identified the most and least supportive Oklahoma legislators in each Legislative session.
At the end of each Legislative session, the Institute evaluates legislators based on floor votes, absences and committee work and creates a profile of each Legislator's individual voting record on issues that affect business, industry, jobs and economic growth. The Institute then awards scores based upon each Legislator's votes and positions on bills important to the private sector. A score of 70 percent or above out of a possible 100 is considered pro-business and pro-jobs.
