The Oklahoma Senator announced eight damning executive measures aimed at ‘restoring moral sanity in Oklahoma’ and pushing back ‘against the moral decay foisted upon’ the state. An ultra-conservative Oklahoman Republican is on a crusade in a bid to “restore moral sanity” in the state, emboldened by Donald Trump’s election in November.

Senator Dusty Deevers, an abortion abolitionist, pastor, and Oklahoma State Senator announced eight executive measures last Tuesday aimed at railing “against the moral decay foisted upon Oklahoma” – including a bill that seeks aims to penalize anybody who engages with porn.
Strikingly, if his pornography bill passes, people who produce, distribute, or possess pornographic material could face up to 30 years in prison as a criminal penalty as Deevers believes “pornography is both degenerate material and a highly addictive drug”.
He went on in the bill to add that pornography was a destructive vice that “ruins marriages, ruins lives, destroys innocence, warps young people’s perception of the opposite sex, turns women into objects, turns men into objects, degrades human dignity, and corrodes the moral fabric of society.
“Any decent society will stand against this plague with the full weight of the law.”. In the past, Deevers appeared in a podcast stating that people in society will either stray toward God, or the Devil – suggesting there was no scope for anything in between, particularly when it came to immoral temptations such as porn.
