Walters: OSDE Will Back Trump Immigration Policies. Liberal Media Does Not Understand Issue/OSDE Responsibility

Monday, January 27, 2025

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Oklahoma City, Okla – State Superintendent Ryan Walters has issued the following statement regarding the enforcement of immigration law under President Trump:

“Schools are crippled by the flood of illegal immigrants and the Biden/Harris open border policy. Oklahomans and the country elected President Trump and we will do everything possible to help put Oklahoma students first.

For years the liberal media has been vilifying Republicans for separating illegal immigrant children from their parents.  Now they want us to explain why we’d let ICE agents into schools. The answer is simple: we want to ensure that deported parents are reconnected with their children and keep families together.” 

Time and time again, the liberal media has demonstrated it does not understand the weight of the issues created by unchecked illegal immigration, nor the responsibility OSDE has to Oklahoma kids.
