Karl Ahlgren Karl Ahlgren is co-owner and general partner of AH Strategies, a political relations firm with offices in Tulsa and Oklahoma City. A 25-year veteran of Oklahoma government and politics, Ahlgren has a client list that includes more than 40 current members of the Oklahoma Legislature. Ahlgren also has been instrumental in passing bi-partisan initiatives in Tulsa, where he lives. In 2009 Ahlgren was the general consultant for the successful elections of Dewey Bartlett as Mayor of Tulsa and Preston Doerflinger as City Auditor of Tulsa. Ahlgren was publicly singled out by Tulsa Mayor Bill LaFortune for the role his strategic planning played in the passage of the city's Vision 2025 Campaign, and he was a major player in the November 2008 passage of Tulsa's "Fix Our Streets" $451 million, five-year comprehensive street improvements plan. Ahlgren formerly was a longtime congressional aide, having served as chief of staff to then-U.S. Congressman (now U.S. Senator) Tom Coburn between 1994 and 2000, and as field director to former U.S. Senator Don Nickles for ten years prior. In his congressional duties, Ahlgren was widely recognized for his ability to work with both parties to assist rural communities in northern and southeastern Oklahoma. From working to solve water and flood issues in northeastern Oklahoma to directing efforts to ship Oklahoma hay to drought-stricken farmers in 10 states, Senate Pro-Tempore Coffee said Ahlgren has demonstrated a unique ability to serve the public. |
