Speaker of the House Jacob Schonfield is a Junior History Major, with a Minor in Constitutional Studies, at The University of Oklahoma. He is a five star who has served two consecutive semesters as House Chief Clerk Administrator. After two years of experience in the House, he was elected as Speaker in the Spring of 2024. His number one priority this year is to ensure that there are open lines of communication between delegations and House Leadership, and that every member of the House feels their voice is being heard. He wants to provide additional resources for every delegation in the House and codify various policies and procedures that make the House run more smoothly, so that the House may continue to improve the experience it provides its delegates for years to come.
Maddy Cantrell is a Senior at the University of Oklahoma pursuing a Dual Degree in Political Science and Journalism. She has served as a Representative in the House in all six of her regular sessions, with four sessions served as a member of the floor leader team. She joined the organization in Fall of 2021, and her favorite memory of being in the organization is her time spent with the Rules committee and the Floor Leader team making sure that session runs well and is super fun for everyone. She was elected to the office of Speaker Pro Tempore in Spring of 2024.
The House is the larger, more energetic, more spontaneous chamber of the legislative branch.
The Speaker of the House and the Speaker Pro Tempore are the elected leaders that preside over the House. The Floor Leader and Chief Clerk are the highest ranking appointed offices in the House.
