ACLU-OK 2024 Advocacy Day

Monday, February 26, 2024
Check-In/Breakfast: 8:30AM
Program: 9AM – 4PM

Oklahoma State Capital
Multipurpose Rm 100
Oklahoma City, OK

This legislative session, there are bills that are in direct opposition to the work we are all doing to create a more just Oklahoma. That is why the theme of our 2024 Advocacy Day is “Lobbying for Yourself.” Our goal is to create a space where your organization can come and lobby on behalf of the bills that will impact the work that you do every day. Our event will provide a chance to learn about and lobby bills that we are tracking, including bills relating to increased sentencing and fines, juvenile justice, a Moratorium on executions in our state, and much more. Will you join us?

The day will kick off with a panel discussion with some of our partnered organizations. They will talk about a variety of bills that have been passed out of the legislature, their impact on our communities, and what to expect this session. We will then take everyone to witness the lawmakers in action on the floor and in committee.

After lunch, we will gather for group sessions on how to craft and share your personal story in an effective way. Followed by an ACLUOK Legislative Advocacy 101 Training! Lastly, we will put the tools you’ve now gained into practice by meeting YOUR Representative and Senator and lobbying for yourself!

Our collective presence at the State Capitol will serve as a powerful image of solidarity as defenders of civil liberties. We hope you can join us!
