What Do You Think?
This is the place on the website where candidates usually explain what they think and what they plan to do. I am here to lay out exactly what I believe, no fluff. Still have questions? Show up at an event or town hall and ask. It’s that simple. I want to know what you think and what questions you have. My campaign as a Democrat in Congressional District four and my work in Congress will be all about YOU, your family, and our community and country. Never about me.

What I Believe.

Quality Education
As a proud product of public schools, I believe education is the greatest equalizer, and every child has the right to a quality education. As your future Representative, I will fight every day on behalf of Oklahoma's children.
In our state, nearly 1/4 of children live in poverty, and our education funding ranks among the lowest. 2/3 of fourth graders are not proficient in reading, one of the strongest predictors of lifelong success. We must ensure all students graduate high school with essential skills, like reading, writing, and arithmetic. We must ensure adequate funding for public schools, including free meals for students.
Our children are the future, and they are my top priority.
Shelter, a Livable Wage, Access to Healthcare, and Protecting Basic Human Rights
I believe in the American dream; I believe that access to basic, life-saving care is a basic human right; I believe that one should not have to work three jobs to survive in the United States; I believe in understanding and empathy over fear and hatred; I believe in Tribal Sovereignty; I believe in State Sovereignty; I believe in a smaller federal government; I believe in personal liberties, individual rights, and strict adherence to the United States Constitution; and I believe in the beauty of our Democracy. I believe in these United States—I believe in you.
Immigration benefits our country, but the system needs to operate more efficiently. We should process work visas, asylum claims, and refugee requests fairly and swiftly, allowing people to contribute to our economy.
Instead of addressing the real issues, we've allocated $100 billion to immigration enforcement, building inhumane camps, and using masked agents on the streets.
We need solutions, not fear; capacity, not more law enforcement; and tolerance, not hatred. I am dedicated to fixing the immigration system and treating all individuals with dignity.

Respect for Law and the Constitution
I swore an oath to support and defend the United States Constitution, and that oath has no expiration. As a candidate and a graduate from the University of Oklahoma College of Law, Boomer Sooner, I am committed to upholding our nation's founding principles: individual liberty and justice for all. Ensuring individual rights, safeguarding liberties, and adhering to the rule of law are the minimum requirements for holding public office. While some may flagrantly disregard these enduring principles, I remain steadfast in my commitment to preserving and honoring the Constitution as the cornerstone of our country's future. Respect for this sacred document is not just a political stance—it is a responsibility we owe to every generation.
Fiscally Responsible Solutions
The biggest threat to our democracy is our skyrocketing national debt. Back in 2016, we owed $16 trillion; now it’s around $36.6 trillion, and interest payments are expected to hit about $1.1 trillion in 2024. This spending on debt now overshadows what we spend on Medicare and defense, ranking second only to Social Security.
As our debt grows and interest rates go up, we have less money for essential things like infrastructure, education, and healthcare.
We need to stop raising the debt limit, cut spending, and eliminate the federal debt. We need to act fast!

My Name is Mitchell Jacob
I am a proud father to five boys and a blessed husband. I was born in Tulsa, OK, and I am one of nine children born to an incredible mother. I am a fourth-generation Okie, avid swimmer, and I love to read—my favorite series is the Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan. No, I do not enjoy the TV adaptation. I have competed in two marathons, multiple half marathons, a triathlon, and two century rides.
Professional Life
Like many, I began my early career as a "Sandwich Artist," in movie theater concessions, and as a busboy. I graduated from high school in 2010. In 2012, I became a mortgage broker, a banker in 2013, and then earned my stockbroker's license in 2014. In 2016, I completed my first associate's degree, and I enlisted as a Private First Class in the United States Army in January 2017. I served for five and a half years as a 35P—Cryptologic Linguist—and earned the rank of Sergeant (E-5). I earned my second associate's degree in 2018, and my bachelor's degree in political science in 2019—right before I deployed to Syria in January 2020. I transitioned out of the Army in May 2022 and graduated from the University of Oklahoma College of Law in 2025.
