A new way to get our action alerts

Events can move fast in the Oklahoma Legislature, especially in the last weeks of May just before adjournment. New bills or amendments – or even the entire state budget – can be introduced and rushed through before constituents have much chance to speak out.

At OK Policy, we try to provide the information you need when it matters most for our state. We share key facts and advocacy alerts through e-mail, social media, and website updates throughout the week. Now we’re excited to offer another way for you to get informed when it’s important to take action right away. You can sign up to get text message alerts to your mobile phone.

We’ve broken up our alerts into several lists to give you control over what you receive. To join one or more lists, simply text the keyword to 51555:

  • Text OKPOLICY to 51555 to receive all of our updates.
  • Text OKBUDGET to 51555 to receive budget and tax updates.
  • Text OKECON to 51555 to receive economic opportunity updates.
  • Text OKHEALTH to 51555 to receive health care updates.
  • Text OKJUSTICE to 51555 to receive criminal justice updates.

And of course you can still find advocacy alerts on our website here, get more resources to take action with the Oklahoma advocacy toolkit here, sign up for our daily news email here, and get connected with other advocates in your local area by joining Together Oklahoma.

Thanks for doing your part to promote fair and responsible public policies in our state!
