A group of business and civic leaders say they want to do what lawmakers have not been able to do yet -- balance the state budget and give teachers a pay raise.
The group is making a big announcement this morning.
A meeting is scheduled for Thursday morning in the Oklahoma History Center.
The group promoting this new plan is made up of business, civic and community leaders.
Together, they've formed a coalition advancing a plan to reform state government.
Their goal is to also increase efficiency, cut abuse and stabilize state revenue.
And good news for teachers because also a part of the plan is increasing teacher pay by $5,000 a year.
All of this is while state leaders are still trying to figure out how to fix the budget problems.
The announcement is scheduled for 10 a.m. Thursday.
