Biography
Dennis, a native of Claremore, OK, with roots in Okmulgee and Sapulpa, is of Euchee (Yuchi) tribal descent and a proud member of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation. With a distinguished career in law enforcement as a Tulsa Police Officer and FBI Special Agent, including serving in the FBI’s Senior Executive Service, Dennis is now seeking to expand America’s middle class and support jobs that pay a living wage. He advocates for high-tech job creation in Oklahoma, robust infrastructure investment, and increasing affordable housing for working families.
Dennis is committed to stopping the outsourcing of critical industries to China and bringing those jobs back to Oklahoma. He prioritizes adequately funding public schools, ensuring teachers receive competitive wages, eliminating staffing shortages, and making college affordable. His healthcare policies aim to provide quality healthcare for all, reduce Medicare costs, and ensure veterans receive the care they deserve. Dennis is also dedicated to preserving Social Security benefits, securing America’s borders, and protecting constitutional rights, including supporting the Women’s Health Protection Act and upholding tribal sovereignty as established by the Supreme Court in McGirt v. Oklahoma.
