David Bullard is an American politician who was first elected to the Oklahoma Senate in 2018.

Personal life

Bullard graduated from Southeastern Oklahoma State University and Lamar University.[1] Prior to campaigning for public office in 2018, he taught history and government at Denison High School.[2]

Oklahoma State Senate

Bullard defeated Erick Wyatt in the June 2018 Republican Party primary for Oklahoma Senate District 6,[3][4] then defeated Democratic Party candidate Arnold Bourne in the general election.[5][6] Bullard took office on 14 November 2018.[7]

In 2023, Bullard made news for submitting the proposed Millstone Act of 2023 to the state legislature, which would declare a state of emergency and criminalize gender affirming healthcare for any trans person under the age of 26 years old, with a 40 year statute of limitations.[8][9][10] Also in 2023, he authored Senate Bill 870, which would restrict the DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) Offices in colleges and universities.[11][12] It came along other anti-DEI legislation from Danny Williams and Shane Jett at the Oklahoma capitol after Superintendent and Secretary of Education Ryan Walters "called for a 10-year review of all expenditures related to DEI over the last decade at Oklahoma higher education institutions" in early 2023.[13]

In 2024, he introduced SJR 30, a contitutional admendment, which would "bring a state question to Oklahomans that would ban all abortions and determine that the legal classification of a person begins when sperm meets egg."[14][15] He also seeks "to narrow the existing medical exception by outlawing abortions to save the life of the mother based on psychological conditions."[16]
