OKLAHOMA CITY (February 12, 2026) - Governor Kevin Stitt issued the following statement after the announcement of two more poultry settlements.
“After three years of gridlock and failed talks, I’m glad the Attorney General finally heeded my calls to get serious about negotiations, although it may be too late. Now that Judge Frizzell has issued a summary judgment, these settlements could be at risk of being denied by the court," said Governor Stitt.
"We need to remember who the real heroes of this latest settlement are: Oklahoma’s farmers and ranchers. I applaud Megan Langley, a brave Oklahoman who stood up, shared her family’s story, and refused to give up when it looked like hope was nearly lost. I also applaud the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association for pulling their endorsement of the Attorney General in response to his extreme position on this issue; it sent a clear message that rural Oklahoma won’t be taken for granted."
"We must all continue to fight the good fight until every single Oklahoma grower is protected and our agricultural communities have certainty.”
