Oklahoma: Urge Committee Members to Support Senate Bill 275
Senate Bill 275, sponsored by state Senator Nathan Dahm, would prohibit the use of public tax monies for the funding of lobbying efforts for gun control legislation. Oklahoma residents do not pay taxes so that local elected officials can use it to push their own anti-gun political agenda.


Also SB 386 by Sykes:

Looking for info on this bill or history behind it?
As I recall, the primary, but not only, culprit is David Boren. He allegedly used tax payer funds to lobby against pro-gun bills.

I do not think any tax monies should be used to fund lobbying, for any reason.

I agree. We can't pay for the budget we have and they are wanting to find ways of taxing us more. It's BS.

And tax money should not be used to promote any one particular political party. But we don't get to vote ont he matter, all they want is our money and they'll send it as they please.

FIFY:

And tax money should not be used to promote any one particular political party. But we don't get to vote on the matter, all they want is our money and they'll spend it as they please.
