Oklahoma Governor Stitt appoints Marc Nuttle to lead DOGE-OK

Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt has appointed Marc Nuttle as the Senior Advisor to the newly formed Division of Government Efficiency (DOGE-OK), aiming to streamline state operations and eliminate wasteful spending. Nuttle, an economist and attorney, will serve in an unpaid capacity and is tasked with reviewing agency budgets and making recommendations for fiscal reforms. During his State of the State address, Stitt emphasized the importance of maintaining accountability in government spending, proposing a flat state budget and a potential income tax cut. The DOGE-OK initiative mirrors a federal effort launched by President Donald Trump, with a focus on restructuring government expenditures. Nuttle is expected to submit a report by March 31 outlining findings and strategies for improving efficiency in Oklahoma's government. Stitt believes that these measures will enhance government performance and protect taxpayers' interests.
