| Collapse all
- Invest in the future of Oklahoma by addressing the dismally inadequate and consistently reduced funding budgeted for our schools.
- Reinforce Oklahomans’ trust in our state and local governments by providing information and service that is built on the scaffolding of transparency.
- Remove and limit barriers for citizens in getting state questions on the ballot. State questions enable voters to make the best choice for our communities when the state government fails to do so, and should not be restricted by elected officials.
Improving the quality, safety, and accessibility of healthcare is an essential function of our government. In national studies, Oklahoma consistently ranks near the bottom of all states in healthcare. Providing access to safe, affordable, and quality healthcare is crucial for assuring positive health outcomes for Oklahomans.
The cornerstone of American democracy and one of the most fundamental rights of citizenship is the right to vote in elections. Voting enables citizens to direct how the government best serves us, but our democracy only works when every voice is heard.
