Kevin Stitt announced in a video message Thursday that he is calling for a special audit of Tulsa Public Schools (TPS) for potential mishandling of public funds and said he is "also concerned that TPS may have violated state law, specifically HB 1775, which bans public schools from teaching critical race theory."
