For us to advance our freedom, liberty, and justice for our LGBTQIA2S+ community. We must REGISTER and VOTE.

If you are over the age of 18 or going to be 18 by election day, register to vote before the deadlines.

If you are registered but changed address and/or name, you MUST update your voter registration.

If you are not sure if you are still registered to vote, check your status with the link below.

And if you think your vote doesn’t matter: know this, there are millions of people like you that think the same way. If we are all registered and vote with our hearts and values, then change WILL happen. Together we can bring about change.

The past few years have been tough being a part of the LGBTQIA2S+ community with so many anti-LGBTQIA2S+ policies and bills coming from our state government.

It is important that you are informed about those bills that are affecting us as they go through the legislative process. You have the right to speak to your legislators about bills that affect you and the people you love.

We will do our best to keep the links below up to date for you to read these bills and understand how they affect you, your family, friends, and allies.

Once you click on the link, then click on the Versions tab and last click on Introduced.

Now what?

Now that you are familiar with the bills in the Oklahoma State legislature, the next step is to find your dIstrict and your legislators.

These steps are very easy and DO have an impact. It will depend on every one of us to be loud and proud when taking these steps.

If you prefer to talk on the phone, you can call your legislator’s office number any time, day or night. You might get a person on the phone or a voicemail and be brief and polite. Give your name and say if you are a constituent or what city you live in if you are someone else’s constituent. Say what bill number you are calling about and whether you are against or in favor of the bill.

If you prefer to write letters, use the official email address you found in the previous link.

Write a short email with the number of the bill you are writing about and whether you are for or against (you can also include this information in the subject field). If you want to expand on your reasons for your position, do so after you state your request for the legislator’s vote. Be polite, even if you disagree. Sign the email with your name and address, (and phone number if you wish).

That is it. It’s that easy!

It doesn’t stop there. If the bill is still in committee, you can call or send email to every representative on the relevant committee. (See ACLU Bill Tracker link in this section) Use the same format and make that voice of yours louder and louder.

Trust me, they must listen.
