OKLAHOMA CITY (March 5, 2026) - Governor Kevin Stitt released the following statement after President Donald Trump announced his nomination of U.S. Senator Markwayne Mullin as Secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.
"Markwayne Mullin has been a fighter for Oklahoma and will fight to keep our nation secure. There isn’t a better choice to lead the Department of Homeland Security. Oklahoma has been an example to the nation for smart immigration enforcement, and Markwayne will bring that common sense to DHS. I will be looking to appoint a strong, small government conservative voice to support President Trump and protect Oklahomans’ way of life," said Governor Kevin Stitt.
