25 years ago today America changed forever. On that day we received a terrible reminder of just how precious and vulnerable every life is. We lost 2,977 men, women and children in the 9/11 attacks. May we always honor them and resolve to protect and comfort their survivors.

As we pause to grieve and remember, let also reflect on the heroism demonstrated by so many brave men and women during one of our nation’s darkest hours. May God bless all those who put themselves in harm’s way to save lives on that awful day.

May we always acknowledge their contributions and the tremendous dignity of all honest labor.

From all of us at the Oklahoma State Auditor’s Office, have a wonderful Labor Day!

Happy Independence Day!

250 years ago today, our Founding Fathers declared that “all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”

These words have served as a brilliant North Star for two and a half centuries. They have been our sure guide through war, social change, and technological revolution. May we never lose sight of that which unites us as Americans, and may we always strive to be worthy of the principles enshrined in our Declaration of Independence.

As we gather with family and friends, let’s also remember the countless men and women who stood firm against tyranny of all kinds to build, reform, and defend this nation over the past 250 years. May their example inspire us to carry on, shoulder to shoulder with our fellow Americans, in defense of our common home.

Wishing you a blessed and joyful Fourth of July on America’s 250th birthday! ♥️🤍💙

Happy Father's Day! May you have a blessed day!

AUDITOR BYRD SHARES TRIBUTE TO GOV. ANOATUBBY

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK (June 8, 2026)

Oklahoma State Auditor & Inspector Cindy Byrd today released the following statement on the resignation of Chickasaw Governor, Bill Anoatubby.

“Governor Anoatubby’s more than fifty years of public service are a shining example of government leadership at its finest. With a steady hand, he steered the Chickasaw Nation through an incredible period of growth. I am particularly grateful for his impact on Oklahoma’s economy. When the Wrangler Jeans Factory closed, Governor Anoatubby and the Chickasaw Nation, in cooperation with the Choctaw Nation, stepped in and provided jobs for many people in my hometown of Coalgate.

While creating thousands of jobs in multiple sectors, Governor Anoatubby never forgot his broader obligations to the community. Under his watch access to healthcare and education expanded greatly throughout the state, especially in South-Central Oklahoma. Governor Anoatubby has impacted countless Oklahomans with his unwavering commitment to the common good as well as his kind and cheerful presence. He is truly one of Oklahoma’s greatest sons.”

Congratulations to one of the best employees ever to serve at SAI! Ricky Branch has served the State of OK for 36 years. He was one of the first supervisors I worked with at the office. He touched the lives of the people he worked with in the office and other government entities. Ricky always put a smile on everyone’s face and made things better in every area he served. It is bittersweet to see him go- we are so happy for him and his family for their next chapter, but he will be missed.
Best wishes my friend!
