Child Protective Services (CPS) is being abused to intimidate parents who challenge government authority in Oklahoma, revealed Senator Shane Jett and Representative Gabe Woolley. Speaking on The Sentinel Report, Senator Jett pointed to a recent case involving the leader of Canadian County Moms for Liberty as an example of state overreach, saying anonymous hotlines now allow accusations without accountability over parents’ educational, medical, or vaccination choices.

Representative Gabe Woolley, who appeared alongside Senator Jett, said the problem stems from handing control of children’s welfare to unaccountable bureaucrats. “We went wrong when we gave the authority for our children over to the government with these agencies,” he said, noting that DHS and judges have been removing children “in the middle of the night” without due process or burden of proof. The result, he warned, is a system where “DHS gets the last word.”

Both lawmakers called for urgent reform to rein in state power and restore constitutional protections for families. Senator Jett said DHS has pushed legislation shielding itself from oversight and described lawmakers’ very limited access to case records. “It’s going to take the public to put pressure on them [DHS] to release that power,” Senator Jett concluded. These things have to change—because no family should live in fear of their own government, they concluded.
