Sooner State Governor Kevin Stitt is encouraging guns and ammo manufacturers to set up shop in Oklahoma; “we still believe in freedom,” Stitt says.
“I just want to tell Oklahoma’s story, let everybody know that we are business-friendly for gun and ammo manufacturers. We still believe in freedom in Oklahoma and we don’t put our constitution in the attic just because someone in Washington DC tells us to.”
According to Breitbart News, Stitt is heading to the National Shooting Sports Foundation’s SHOT Show in January 2023.
From Breitbart News:
Stitt stressed that Oklahoma stands strong on the Second Amendment, even when other states cave to the gun control lobby.
As we spoke, Stitt gave more specifics on why he believes Oklahoma is a great location for gun and ammo makers: “First off, our state is number 11 in the country right now of people moving to Oklahoma, not per-capita, but total numbers, because of our pro-business policy. Our regulatory framework is so business-friendly.”
He pointed to the value of Oklahoma’s “quality of life to labor costs” compared to other states.
Stitt noted, “For example, us versus California, we are 430 percent less in housing cost than they are on the coast.”
After talking about his state’s pro-business framework and low cost of living, Stitt suggested the final point of the trifecta for Oklahoma is the state’s energy independence.
He said, “We are an ‘all of the above’ energy state. In other words, we’re number four in oil production, number three in natural gas, and we’re also number two in wind energy production. We create more energy than we use. We’re a chief exporter to what’s called the Southwest Power Pool.”
