OKLAHOMA CITY, OK – Lt. Governor Matt Pinnell has been selected for the Class of 2023 Rodel Fellowship. He is one of just 24 state and local leaders chosen from across the country to participate in the program.
"I am honored to further my public policy education through the Rodel Fellowship,” said Lt. Governor Pinnell. “This is our country’s premier political leadership development program, and I know it will help me reach my full potential as a public servant. I look forward to learning from different points of view and bringing back ways to better Oklahoma.”
The Rodel Fellowship is a highly selective leadership development program for elected officials from around the country. Each year, the Rodel Institute selects 24 state and local-level leaders, 12 Republicans and 12 Democrats, to join for a series of seminars held over a two-year period. The fellows work together to address some of our nation’s most important domestic and international challenges.
The Rodel Fellowship was created in 2005 by former Oklahoma Congressman Mickey Edwards and business leader Bill Budinger. The Lt. Governor’s participation in the program will not be paid for with taxpayer dollars.
