All week, I’ve been thinking about my constituents who suffered storm damage during the recent bout of severe weather that swept across the state. Anti-price gouging laws are in effect in 12 counties, including Kay, as a result. As you consider making home repairs, I recommend you visit the Oklahoma Construction Industries Board website to make sure your contractors are registered with the state, as is required by law. Oklahomans can report suspected contractor fraud by contacting the attorney general’s Consumer Protection Unit at 1-833-681-1895.
