Re: Kerr-McGee move out out of Oklahoma?
Support for Kerr-McGee Corporation
MEMO
TO: All Members of The State Chamber
FROM: Dick Rush, President & CEO
SUBJECT: Support for Kerr-McGee Corporation
DATE: March 21, 2005
One of Oklahoma’s major energy companies, Kerr-McGee Corporation, is facing an assault and possible take-over. We are urging all of our members to step forward and show your support of this great Oklahoma company. As your State Chamber we have supported the protection of Oklahoma businesses for almost 80 years. Outside negative influences should not be allowed to come in and place Oklahoma jobs in jeopardy.
Therefore we are asking you to send individual letters of support to Kerr-McGee’s corporate offices (P.O. Box 25861, Oklahoma City, OK 73125-0861) and to copy your state representative and senator (State Capitol, Oklahoma City, OK 73105). These letters should be short and to the point. Basically, we need to thank Kerr-McGee for their corporate citizenship and state leadership.
Larry Nichols, Chairman and CEO of Devon Energy Corporation and the 2005 Chairman of the Board for The State Chamber, has publicly stated “Our state is built on the foundation of our oil and gas industry. We offer our support to Kerr-McGee during this time of challenge. We need more great companies like Kerr-McGee, not less.”
Please add your name to the growing list of Oklahoma business leaders who support Oklahoma companies and jobs. Thanks.
