Oklahoma hasn’t raised its minimum wage in 17 years. Voters are about to get their say.

In the second episode of Grounded in Fact, Groundwork Project founder Joe Kennedy breaks down the fight behind State Question 832,  the citizen-led ballot initiative to raise Oklahoma’s minimum wage to $15 an hour.

The episode covers the history of the minimum wage, who it was designed to exclude, and why the burden has never been shared equally. 

The vote is June 16, 2026. Tune in to understand what is at stake, who is most affected, and why this moment matters, for Oklahoma and for every state watching to see what happens next.
