If you’ve ever wondered why the governor vetoes the bills he does, you can now find out for yourself.
Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt launched a website explaining his vetoes from the 2026 Legislative Session.
“If you ever wonder why I veto something, go read the message attached to that bill on my website,” said Stitt. “This gives Oklahomans the chance to understand my thinking on the legislation that comes to my desk.”
Gov. Stitt said many of his vetoes this year were on bills he said would’ve expanded the size and reach of state government.

Last year, lawmakers overrode a record 47 vetoes.
The governor has vetoed 33 bills so far this session.
