Calendar
Upcoming
Oklahoma chapter: no public meetings are scheduled yet - the first organizing meeting is being planned. Join the volunteer list to be notified when it is set. Dates, times, and locations will be posted here. Other chapters' calendars will appear as chapters launch - see State Chapters.
How Our Meetings Run
Open, Peaceful, On the Record
- Open to everyone. Meetings are public, cross-partisan, and welcoming. Bring your questions and your skepticism.
- Peaceful and lawful, always. We plan public comment, records requests, and education - nothing else. Conduct standards are on the Mission page.
- Neutral venues. We meet in library and community rooms - neutral public spaces available to any civic group under the venue's ordinary rules.
- Documented. Agendas and notes are kept, and factual claims made at meetings go through the same verification standard as this site.
Independent civic-education and constitutional-privacy project. Not affiliated with or endorsed by any government agency, library, venue, police department, or political party. Meeting in a public room does not imply the venue's endorsement.
Civic Participation How-To
You Do Not Have to Wait for Us
The pattern below works in every state; the specific numbers and links are the Oklahoma chapter's.
Find your legislators
Use the official lookup: Find My Legislature (oklegislature.gov). House switchboard: (405) 521-2711. Senate switchboard: (405) 524-0126.
Speak at a council meeting
Every city posts its council agenda in advance, usually with instructions for signing up for public comment. Arrive early, sign up, and speak calmly for your allotted minutes. State facts, cite sources, and make one clear ask. You represent the argument - courtesy is part of the argument.
Request public records
Oklahoma's Open Records Act lets any person request government records - contracts, policies, audit logs, camera locations. Write to the city or county clerk (for OKC: cityclerk@okc.gov, (405) 297-2391), describe the records specifically, and keep a copy of your request. Records you obtain can be shared with the project for verification and publication.
