State statements

TaxesNo. 1/8

Oklahoma should phase out its personal income tax.

Background

Oklahoma taxes personal income with a top rate that lawmakers recently lowered. Phasing it out would end the tax over several years and require other revenue or spending changes.

Mike Mazzei Agree

Make Oklahoma a No-Income-Tax State

Campaign or official site · Sep 23, 2026 · retrieved Sep 23, 2026

to become a no-income tax state in the first year of a Mazzei administration, we can lower everyone's income tax rate from 4.5% to 3%

We've got to keep our income tax. That's 70 percent of our revenue for our state budget. We need that money.

EducationNo. 2/8

Oklahoma should stop giving tax credits for private school tuition.

Background

Since 2024, Oklahoma has given families refundable tax credits to help pay private school tuition, with a yearly cap on the total. Ending the credits would stop that support and keep the money in the state budget.

AbortionNo. 3/8

Oklahoma should allow abortion in cases of rape or incest.

Background

Oklahoma bans abortion at all stages of pregnancy except to save the life of the pregnant patient. This would add exceptions for pregnancies caused by rape or incest.

Mike Mazzei Disagree

Life begins at conception. Every human being has a right to life, and government has a duty to protect it. Mike opposes abortion in all circumstances.

Health careNo. 4/8

Oklahoma should keep Medicaid coverage for low-income adults added by the 2020 expansion.

Health careNo. 6/8

Oklahoma should tighten limits on the number of medical marijuana businesses.

Background

Oklahoma has one of the country's largest numbers of licensed medical marijuana businesses since voters approved medical use in 2018. Tighter limits would cap or reduce the number of licenses.

Mike Mazzei Agree

Oklahoma produces 30 times more marijuana than is necessary for the state's approximately 300,000 medical card holders

Foreign policyNo. 7/8

Oklahoma should ban companies tied to foreign adversary governments from owning land in the state.

Background

Oklahoma law already restricts some land ownership by people and businesses without legal status or ties to foreign governments. A ban would bar any purchase by companies linked to governments the U.S. names as foreign adversaries.

Mike Mazzei Agree

Prohibit foreign governments and foreign-controlled companies from owning Oklahoma land

Campaign or official site · Sep 23, 2026 · retrieved Sep 23, 2026

ImmigrationNo. 8/8

Oklahoma should make it a state crime to live in the state without legal immigration status.

Background

A 2024 Oklahoma law created such a state crime, but federal courts have blocked it from taking effect. Immigration status is otherwise enforced under federal law.

Mike Mazzei Agree

Illegal immigration has consequences. It puts pressure on our law enforcement, our schools, our jobs, and the safety of our communities.
