As the Republican Mayor of Bixby, Guthrie helped make critical investments that have attracted hundreds of millions in new economic development. That translates to more jobs, opportunities, and a more robust economy. Brian believes we must prioritize investing in our infrastructure before expecting outside business investments. Bixby's prosperity stems from this very principle – emphasizing our strengths and reinforcing the foundation of our local community.

Education
Guthrie believes teachers play a critical role in preparing our students with the tools needed to contribute meaningfully to their communities and state.

By supporting our teachers, Oklahoma aims to retain the best teachers, ensuring a thriving education system that benefits both educators and the students they inspire.
