From NewsOK:
Gov. Brad Henry’s spokesman, Paul Sund, said Wednesday the governor is “in general discussions with legislative leaders about the state’s revenue outlook and (has) made no final definitive decisions on anything yet.”
The governor can call a special session, or legislators can call for one with a two-thirds vote.
A spokeswoman for House Speaker Chris Benge, R-Tulsa, and a spokesman for Senate President Pro Tempore Glenn Coffee, R-Oklahoma City, would not comment.
Several legislators said they have been told a special session could be held the week of Aug. 31.
