Voices of Small Business Against State Question 695 
 Jimmie
Marshall, owner, Excelsior Cee Publishing
"If 695 passes, Oklahoma wages will fall and more
families will be forced to leave our state to find good paying
jobs. We need to create better opportunity here in Oklahoma
by improving schools, building roads, and creating more job
training programs."
 Jeanne
Flanigan, owner, Flanigan's Costumes
"I'm a member of the local Chamber of Commerce and
am very active in our business community. Small business owners
are lining up against 695 because it will lower the standard
of living in our community."
 Steve
Snyder, vice president, Snyder's Printing
"My employees are like family to me, and I treat
them with fairness and respect. I'm against 695 because I
want to stay competitive and pay my workers more not less."
 Melodee
Dailey, owner, Gregory & Co. Monogramming
"As a small business owner, my success depends on
the economic well-being of local families and businesses.
I'm afraid 695 will lower wages and hurt businesses like mine."
