Zumwalt to add Cabinet secretary duties to her tourism plate after appointment by Stitt
Gov. Kevin Stitt on Tuesday appointed Shelley Zumwalt as the state’s tourism secretary, filling an opening in his Cabinet that’s been vacant since last July.
Zumwalt, who has served since October 2022 as the executive director of the Oklahoma Department of Tourism and Recreation , will continue in that role in addition to her new duties. As tourism secretary, she will succeed Lt. Gov. Matt Pinnell, who was named as Stitt’s secretary of workforce development last summer.
While directing the Tourism Department, Zumwalt has tried to clean up a mess she inherited concerning the operation of restaurants in Oklahoma state parks. Under her predecessor, a contract for operation of all six park restaurants was awarded to Swadley's Bar-B-Q, which ran them under the name Swadley's Foggy Bottom Kitchen. The contract was terminated after allegations of misspent funds that led to legislative investigations, lawsuits and more.
"Shelley Zumwalt has proven herself to be a tourism powerhouse and a compelling ambassador for Oklahoma," Stitt said in a statement. "After seeing the historic numbers from last year, I've never been more excited for the future of Oklahoma's tourism industry — and that means having Shelley at the helm."
Zumwalt has worked in various roles in state government for about 12 years, starting in the Office of State Finance and later spending time with the Oklahoma Health Care Authority and the Office of Management and Enterprise Services. In May 2020, she was named as the interim director of the Oklahoma Employment Security Commission and spent about two and a half years there before moving to lead the Tourism Department.
Oklahoma’s Tourism, Wildlife and Heritage Cabinet has a goal to boost tourism as an economic driver for the state, as well as wildlife conservation and the protection of cultural and national assets, according to the Cabinet website.
"It’s been a privilege to serve the citizens of Oklahoma in numerous roles over the past 12 years, and I’m proud to continue that service as Secretary of Tourism, Wildlife and Heritage," Zumwalt said. "As a native Oklahoman, I’m thankful to Gov. Stitt for putting his trust in me to serve the agencies in this Cabinet that bring visitors from all over the world. Tourism is Oklahoma’s rising economic powerhouse and the industry’s continued development is essential to our state’s workforce and future success."
The Oklahoma Senate must confirm Zumwalt’s appointment for it to become official. If she’s confirmed, her term as tourism secretary will expire on Jan. 11, 2027.
Three vacancies remain in Stitt’s 15-person Cabinet — for secretary of commerce, secretary of health and mental health, and secretary of education.

Environment | cal poly humboldt closes campus for rest of semester over gaza protests, environment | gov. newsom announces first new state park in a decade and sets climate goals for natural lands.
By SOPHIE AUSTIN | Associated Press/Report for America
MODESTO — California will open its first new state park in a decade this summer, Gov. Gavin Newsom and state officials announced Monday, as the state sets targets for cutting planet-warming emissions on natural lands.
The 1,600-acre Dos Rios tract in the state’s crop-rich Central Valley is set to open June 12 as California’s 281st state park. Located near the confluence of the Tuolumne and San Joaquin rivers, it is surrounded by vast almond orchards and dairy pastures. Californians will be able to use the park for hiking and picnicking, with plans for swimming and boating access in the future.
Ali Manzo, a Central Valley native and California State Parks interpreter, said the new park will help bring people together and allow them to develop a deeper respect for nature.
“Dos Rios is not just a park,” Manzo said. “It’s a community treasure that offers peace, adventure and a vital connection to nature.”

Manzo joined the governor, First Partner Jennifer Siebel Newsom and civil rights icon Dolores Huerta to announce the new park.
The Earth-Day announcement comes as Newsom unveiled new targets for cutting greenhouse gas emissions on natural lands. The plan sets out to reduce the risks of wildfires, expand forest cover and restore wetlands. Newsom said the targets would move the state closer toward achieving its mandate of carbon neutrality , meaning it will remove as many carbon emissions from the atmosphere as it emits, by 2045.
“These are stretch goals, unquestionably,” the Democratic governor said. “The good news is we’re making real progress.”
Newsom did not say what success would look like for implementing the targets. His administration did not release an estimate for how much the plan would cost the state, which is facing a massive projected budget deficit.
The plan aims to reduce the risks of wildfires across nearly 53,000 square miles (138,000 square kilometers) of land by 2045 through methods that include burning vegetation that can make wildfires more intense. The state also plans to plant 4.2 million trees, manage and restore 1.6 million acres (647,000 hectares) of grasslands, and protect more than 233,000 acres (94,000 hectares) of wetlands and seagrasses along that timeline.
California has spent about $9.6 billion since 2020 on efforts address climate change using the state’s natural lands.
Natural Resources Secretary Wade Crowfoot called the plan “a big deal” because the state has focused much of its climate policy on reducing emissions from other areas, such as the energy sector, and less so from natural lands.
“We know we have to reduce pollution significantly, but we also need to improve the health of our landscapes to actually remove carbon dioxide from the air,” Crowfoot said.
In recent years, the state has approved the eventual phasing out of the sale of new fossil fuel-powered cars , lawn mowers , large trucks that transport goods through ports and trains powered by diesel .
