Ryan Martinez is an American politician who served in the Oklahoma House of Representatives from the 39th District from 2016 through his resignation in 2023.

An influential member during his tenure, Martinez resigned after charges for driving under the influence generated a political scandal and a lawsuit seeking his removal from office.

During his tenure in the Oklahoma house, he chaired the redistricting commission after the 2020 United States Census and the Swadley's BBQ committee investigation.

[2] In June 2016, Martinez won in the Republican primary for the Oklahoma House of Representatives over fellow candidate Michael Buoy, with 68% of the votes.

[13] Later in the session, Martinez referred to Governor Kevin Stitt's veto of a bill requiring the Oklahoma Department of Public Safety to count convictions in tribal courts when determining driver’s license suspensions as “racist and hateful”.

[15] On October 26, 2022, the Edmond Police Department received a 911 call reporting Martinez was drunk at a bar and was about to leave in his vehicle.

Police arrived and found him in his car where he was arrested for driving under the influence after he failed a field sobriety test.

[7] On December 22, 2022, Representative Martinez was indicted for felony "Actual Physical Control Of Vehicle While Intoxicated" in Oklahoma County.

But on August 16, Governor Kevin Stitt (R) joined the suit in favor of Martinez's removal and announced his intention to hold a special election.
