The Oklahoma News Report
On this week's ONR, the Keystone XL Pipeline giveth, but it also taketh away. Our reporters look at the issue of imminent domain and what that means for Oklahoma residents living along the pipeline's path. Faith-based substance abuse programs expand their reach to meet the ever-growing needs of those struggling with the demons of addiction. Luck favors the prepared, especially in Tornado Alley. We look into emergency plans and shelters from Oklahoma's life-threatening storms. Finally, artwork seeks repair as murals in the State Capitol meet their deadliest foe--sunlight. And a landmark church gets a chance at revival with new ownership.

Major General Rita Aragon and former Medical Director of the Norman Veterans Center, Dr. Pamela Hiti weigh in on some of the problems and possible solutions to accusations of neglect and abuse at veteran’s facilities. Proposed tax cuts and falling natural gas prices are creating uncertainty as legislators begin the complex task of drafting a state budget. Sen. Clark Jolley (R-Edmond) and Rep. Earl Sears (R-Bartlesville), who lead the Senate and House Appropriations Committees, talk about some of the unique challenges they face this year. Sen. Brian Bingman (R-Supulpa), Rep. Kris Steele (R-Shawnee), and Rep. Scott Inman (D-Del City) also voice their concerns. Music and arts education programs face more cuts in public schools, forcing many districts to rely on the private sector for creative instruction. The Tulsa Symphony recently paid internationally renowned music teacher Roberta Guaspari to teach some workshops in the city. It’s one example of private organizations trying to provide opportunities for music and arts education. And our partners at E-Capitol and The Journal Record have updates on other trending stories in government and business this week.

A state public awareness campaign has been underway since 2009 to improve outcomes for our youngest citizens. Too many infants are dying in our state each week.

Eleven years ago, Oklahoma’s smoking rate stood at 29%. Since then, it's reached an historic low of 23.7%. Yet, the use of tobacco is growing in one group of the population - the state's youth.
