Ok...I did a search and couldn't find this here. I can't believe it hasn't been posted so maybe search is down or "oklahoma" doesn't bring the correct result.
In any case somebody help me out here. It appears this went down in March, but I haven't heard a thing about it. Maybe I've had my face screwed into a sewer drain?
Here are a couple of other links..as far as I can tell it looks like a real deal but may be more show than go.

Alaska should do this and start pumping oil from ANWR next week. Tell the Feds and the EnviroMarxists to piss off.

Hopefully, this will start a trend. There are several areas where the Federal Government has completly failed.
Securing our borders, enforcing our immigration laws, protecting us from attack from terrorists, keeping our Armed Forces ready, supplied, and funded.
I’m sure Oklahoma feels justified. I just wish the border states would follow. And that includes my home state Texas.
Just my two cents.

Heck, I may move to Oklahoma. I’m one state up and stuck with Sebelius as Governor.

A very interesting prospect. At the founding of this nation, states held effectively more power than the federal government. But, almost from the beginning, the struggle for power between the federal government and states for-shadowed the loss to the states we now have today.
Jefferson and others knew it would inevitably occur and the states would play second fiddle to the federal government. It will take much education and another great awakening before Americans reclaim their country. This, while encouraging will likely not happen in my lifetime but it is my hope it does before it is too late.

This country needs the states to do this. Start telling the federal government to get stuffed. Maybe I should pile the guns into the car and move to OK.

I’m from Oklahoma (in Tennessee right now) and hadn’t heard anything about this. I’ll certainly find out though and report back. My Dad knows people in OK State Government.

The source is false. The source link does not redirect to Digg.com, it goes to some no-name gold-pushing site. Please change the source or remove this article.

ALL the states are sovereign states. The federal government would not exist if the sovereign states didn’t create it and delegate certain enumerated powers to it, while rataining ALL the other powers for themselves or the citizens of those states.
Good for Oklahoma that almost all their reps understand it.

.. Oklahoma hereby claims sovereignty ... over all powers not otherwise enumerated and granted to the federal government by the Constitution of the United States. ...and Demand to the federal government... to cease and desist...mandates that are beyond the scope of these constitutionally delegated powers. I don't really see what all the fuss is about.
Oklahoma is simply declaring they have powers under the Constitution and demanding that the Feds not exercise powers not granted them under the Constitution. Basically, it's just another toothless symbolic resolution.
Don't get me wrong, I am all in favor of the states standing up against Federal encroachment. I just don't expect anyone to start firing on Ft. Sill anytime soon.

We can only hope Oklahoma pushes this and has the other states follow suit. The federal government has become way to involved in our lives and needs to be reeled back in.
