Nominations now open for Attorney General\u2019s 2026 Officer of the Year<\/a> <\/i>

Senator Chuck Hall, District 20, was recently honored with the Oklahoma Cattlemen\u2019s Association\u2019s (OCA) 2026 Legislative Appreciation Award.<\/p>\n

OCA annually honors legislators who have worked hard to protect and promote the Oklahoma beef cattle industry in the Oklahoma Legislature. OCA is at the Capitol every day of the legislative session working with legislators to pass and block key legislation relative to Oklahoma beef cattle producers, private property rights, rural communities and the future of
agriculture.<\/p>\n

\u201cChairman Hall has consistently demonstrated a willingness to listen to cattlemen, understand our issues and help advance good policies that strengthen Oklahoma\u2019s family ranching businesses,\u201d said Michael Kelsey, OCA Executive Vice President. Senator Hall was elected to the Oklahoma State Senate in 2018 and represents Senate District 20,
which includes Pawnee, Noble, Logan, Payne and Kingfisher counties. In his role as Senate Appropriations Chairman, Hall has been instrumental in helping secure major investments in Oklahoma agriculture, including funding for the Oklahoma State University Veterinary School and the OSU Agronomy Research Farm.<\/p>\n

\u201cChairman Hall understands that agriculture is not only part of Oklahoma\u2019s history, but also a critical part of our future,\u201d Kelsey said. \u201cHis work to support the OSU Veterinary School and Agronomy Research Farm will benefit cattle producers, veterinarians, researchers, students and rural communities for generations to come.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to his support for agricultural education and research, Hall has long supported cattlemen\u2019s policy priorities, including protecting private property rights, promoting limited government and defending the ability of farmers and ranchers to operate without unnecessary regulatory burdens.
\u201cChairman Hall understands that private property rights and limited government are not talking points \u2014 they are foundational principles for agricultural producers,\u201d Kelsey said. \u201cHe has also brought common sense reform ideas to tax policy and continues to be a leader for reasonable, long-term discussion about Oklahoma\u2019s tax structure. That is especially important to agriculture, whether it is preserving the agricultural sales tax exemption or understanding the importance of sound ad valorem tax policy for landowners and rural communities.\u201d<\/p>\n

Representative John Kane, House District 11, was recently honored with the Oklahoma Cattlemen\u2019s Association\u2019s (OCA) 2026 Legislative Appreciation Award.<\/p>\n

OCA annually honors legislators who have worked hard to protect and promote the Oklahoma beef cattle industry in the Oklahoma Legislature. OCA is at the Capitol every day of the legislative session working with legislators to pass and block key legislation relative to Oklahoma beef cattle producers, private property rights, rural communities and the future of
agriculture.<\/p>\n

\u201cRepresentative Kane understands the cattle industry because he is a cattleman himself,\u201d said Michael Kelsey, OCA Executive Vice President. \u201cThat firsthand experience gives him a valuable perspective when considering policies that impact ranching families, landowners and rural Oklahoma.\u201d<\/p>\n

Representative Kane represents House District 11, which includes parts of Washington and Tulsa counties. As a member of the Oklahoma House of Representatives, Kane has been selected for leadership responsibilities currently as Vice Chair of the House Appropriations Committee. \u201cOCA has appreciated the opportunity to work with Vice Chairman Kane on practical issues that matter to cattlemen, including fencing law, Commissioners of Land Office (CLO) reforms and
the protection of private property rights,\u201d Kelsey said. \u201cThese are not abstract policy discussions for producers. They directly affect how cattlemen manage their land, protect their livestock and operate their family ranching businesses.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kane\u2019s background as a cattle producer has helped him bring common sense and real-world understanding to agricultural policy discussions at the Capitol. His willingness to listen, engage and work through complex issues has made him a strong voice for rural Oklahoma and the beef cattle industry.
\u201cVice Chairman Kane recognizes that strong property rights and workable laws are essential to the future of agriculture,\u201d Kelsey said. \u201cOklahoma cattlemen need legislators who understand the importance of keeping producers on the land, protecting their ability to operate and ensuring that state law respects the realities of ranching. He has been an incredibly valuable partner in those
efforts.\u201d<\/p>\n

The OCA is the trusted voice of the Oklahoma Cattle Industry and works to protect and empower Oklahoma cattlemen today, to serve tomorrow. OCA is the only voice that speaks solely for the cattlemen of Oklahoma and represents beef producers in all 77 counties across the state.
