PLEASE READ ENTIRE EMAIL! THIS IS A VERY IMPORTANT WEEK!
IF YOU CAN'T JOIN US THIS WEEK, PLEASE SCROLL THROUGH TO THE BOTTOM AND MAKE THE CALLS AND EMAILS TO SUPPORT THESE BILLS. SB 177 ESPECIALLY NEEDS ATTENTION (SCROLL TO BOTTOM FOR INFO).

Join us on Monday & Wednesday this week!
BIG things happening and we need YOU!!

BUT FIRST, have you called and emailed the Senate HHS Committee to oppose the following bills yet? All three bills are authored by Senator Yen and all three bills infringe upon parental rights!

  • SB 83 - Removes the personal and religious vaccine exemptions for daycare and school
  • SB 714 - Requires all midwives in Oklahoma to also be RN's
  • SB 747 - Makes out-of-hospital VBAC's, twin births, and breech births illegal
It's easy to call! You simply say, "I'm calling to ask that Senator ____ please oppose SB 83, SB 714, and SB 747 as all of these bills remove parental rights. It will be heard Monday in the health committee. Thank you!"

If you are a constituent, please mention that when calling. When emailing, put in the subject line "NO on SB 83" and if you are a constituent, please make sure the subject line reads "From your constituent. NO on SB 83." (If you don't know who your state senator is, please text your zip code to 913-586-4853)

Senator Yen claimed this week that he has "other tricks up his sleeve" if things don't go well Monday.
Now on to the House side of things! 
Have you called and emailed the House Appropriations Committee to ask that they support HB 1386?
HB 1386, the Informed Consent Bill, authored by Representative Tom Gann, will be heard in the Appropriations Committee Wednesday at 3:30 in room 206. PLEASE consider coming to the Capitol that day to support Rep. Gann and his fearless effort to support parental rights and ensure safety for Oklahoma children! It's easy for us to always be in defense mode with Senator Yen, but we have to remember to also be on the offense.
In the meantime, call and email the Appropriations Committee members and ask them to please vote YES on HB 1386. Tell them it will be heard on Wednesday.
Use this block of email for emailing the appropriations committee: leslie.osborn@okhouse.gov, kevin.wallace@okhouse.gov, john.bennett@okhouse.gov, scott.biggs@okhouse.gov, david.brumbaugh@okhouse.gov, chad.caldwell@okhouse.gov, kevin.calvey@okhouse.gov, josh.cockroft@okhouse.gov, jason.dunnington@okhouse.gov, jon.echols@okhouse.gov, katie.henke@okhouse.gov, scott.inman@okhouse.gov, jp.jordan@okhouse.gov, steve.kouplen@okhouse.gov, ben.loring@okhouse.gov, scott.martin@okhouse.gov, jason.murphey@okhouse.gov, charles.ortega@okhouse.gov, pat.ownbey@okhouse.gov,

Now back to the Senate!
One more bill needs your attention! SB 177, authored by Senator Dahm, is not yet on the Education Committee agenda. This is a very important bill and we need everyone to PLEASE DO ONE THING. Call Senator Stanislawski and ask him to PLEASE hear SB 177 in the Education Committee. (405) 521-5624
That's it! Hope to see you at the Capitol this week. Don't forget to wear your OVHC shirt! If you can't make it, don't sweat it, just make the calls and emails! THANK YOU for ANY part you play in helping to keep our kids safe and healthy! ❤️
