I want to congratulate my friend Monroe Nichols on being elected Tulsa's 41st mayor. This is the greatest honor Tulsans have in our power to bestow on one of our neighbors. Mayor Nichols has my full commitment to do all I can to help him launch his Administration successfully on December 2nd. I am excited to begin that transition, and we are scheduled to meet on Thursday to kick things off.
I also want to thank my friend Karen Keith for loving our city enough to put her name forward as a candidate, and for running a campaign that attracted the support of thousands in our city. Karen has our city’s gratitude for all she has done - and will continue to do - for Tulsa.

Governing magazine has always been my go-to resource for no-frills serious journalism on how government works and where it can improve. So it was both a surprise and an honor to find out they have named me as one of their Public Officials of the Year for 2024!
While I appreciate that the results of what we’ve achieved in Tulsa are being highlighted for a national audience of public servants, I am more thankful @GOVERNING is elevating the way in which we did it:
“His proudest achievement, Bynum says, is demonstrating that ‘people from different political parties and different partisan beliefs can work together on the greatest challenges that face their community and find solutions together.’”
Thank you to all you Republicans, Democrats, and Independents who put your love of Tulsa above your disagreements on national issues. Because of your work together, Tulsa is setting a different standard for how government can work!
