Oklahoma Lawmakers Provide Incentives for Grocers to Bring Healthy Options to Shelves

Barbara Hoberock of World Capitol Bureau writes that two Oklahoma lawmakers to will begin an interim legislative study that aims to provide information about incentives to attract grocers selling healthy, affordable, locally grown produce.

Rep. Seneca Scott, D-Tulsa said that providing incentives to healthy grocers helps the economy, lowers health care costs and means Oklahomans won’t have to choose between convenience and health.

What incentives or ideas could you share with Oklahoma lawmakers or grocers?
