When we won marriage equality at the Supreme Court in 2015, it was the culmination of decades of advocacy from the queer community. Families across the country have built their lives around the landmark ruling that affirmed our freedom to marry — and we’ll defend that right no matter what.

1 in 4 women convicted of failure to protect in Oklahoma receive a longer sentence than the man responsible for the child abuse. When DV survivors report suspected child abuse, they can face a lifetime sentence. A bill that would have changed that never got a hearing.

I’ll be at the OKC City Council meeting Tuesday 12/31 at 8:30am to demand accountability for Mr. Vu, the 71 year old Vietnamese man slammed to the ground by police. Can you join me?

I wish I could say I was surprised by the AG dismissing charges against the police officer who used excessive force against a 71 year old Viet man. These systems were never built for us no matter how hard the Vietnamese diaspora thinks our proximity to whiteness will protect us.

Pay attention to Oklahoma. Bibles in classrooms isn't the big story. The same legal teams behind the seeding of Dobbs are driving a case to create religious schools fully funded by the public & they've already petitioned the Supreme Court. Understandably, everyone was focused on the election.

Hi everyone, I’m still on Twitter but thought posting #okleg updates on here would be helpful for those who left. I’m the policy director for ACLU Oklahoma and post about legislative session, criminal legal reform, 2SLGBTQ+ rights, repro freedom, free speech, etc — but most importantly, my dog.
