Oklahoma HB1738 would deny much-needed material support or resources to warrantless federal spying programs. And SB444 would ban the state from participating in an unconstitutional federal-state information program. HB1738 must pass out of the House State and Federal Relations Committee while SB444 must pass out of the Senate Judiciary Committee before the bills can receive full votes in their respective chambers.
PLEASE TAKE THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS – It doesn’t matter where you live in the state, please follow all these steps to support these bills.
FOR HB1738
1. Call the Chair of the House State and Federal Relations Committee, Lewis Moore. Be strong, but respectful. Urge him to support HB1738 and move the bill forward in his committee. If he does not commit to a YES vote, ask why.
