Saturday, April 25, 2009
Tulsa, OK, April 25, 2009 - In response to Governor Henry’s veto of HJR 1003, legislation that reaffirmed the 10th Amendment of the US Constitution, Senator Brogdon called on the Governor to refrain from any further erosion of the people’s Constitutional rights.
“At the end of the workweek, when everyone else had left the Capitol, Brad Henry used his veto power to reject the Constitution he swore to uphold,” said Brogdon. “With the stroke of the pen, the Governor decided to let President Obama and Congress continue to erode our Constitutional rights.”
“This is not an isolated case,” said Brogdon. He then referred to Governor Henry’s veto on legislation that would have banned embryonic stem cell research. “In less than one week’s time, Brad Henry has vetoed life and liberty.”
“This is not about left vs. right or liberal vs. conservative,” continued Brogdon. “This is about right and wrong. And according to the vast majority of Oklahomans, these Brad Henry vetoes are just plain wrong.”
Brogdon added, “Governor Henry must stop implementing Obama’s policies and start listening to the people who he is sworn to represent.”
