about Your Candidate for HD68
Michelle LaFleur

Michelle is running for office because our legislators’ time and our taxpayers’ money should be focused on improving the lives and outcomes for every Oklahoman. Currently, legislators are focused on banning books or naming a state mushroom, while our state falls behind in education and other vital areas.
Hello, I am Michelle LaFleur, and I hope to represent District 68 in the Oklahoma House of Representatives. I was born in Tulsa and spent most of my childhood in Bixby and Tulsa.
My mother is an electrical engineer, and my father is a carpenter and musician. This mix of white and blue collar gave me a diverse set of experiences and an appreciation for all the different ways people contribute to our community. Focusing on the commonality instead of the differences.
I graduated from the University of Tulsa, where I studied Business Administration. After graduation, I worked my way up to Land Manager “landman” at local Oil and Gas companies. While working in this field, I also experienced the challenges as those companies consolidated or left the state.
Fortunately, I have been able to transfer my land management skills to other industries and keep my family in the Tulsa area. My husband and I have spent the last 15 years raising our family in District 68, with a child in public school and roots in the local community.
When I can find some free time, I enjoy going to concerts with my family and watching Formula 1 with my Husband. I also volunteer with a rescue group called BRAT Basenji Rescue and Transport that helps find suitable homes for basenjis, a high maintenance, but loveable dog breed.
Discussion, debate, and compromise move societies forward. I am not afraid to listen, learn, and grow while serving District 68.
