Please accept my apologies if you are getting this email twice (or
more). Many have asked me to refer them to the State Questions which
will appear on the November ballot in Oklahoma so I'm sending this to as
many people as I can. Here are the initiatives I could find - finally!
It wasn't as easy as I thought!

If you can't open the hyperlinks embedded in this email, I have posted
the link below to the page from which this was copied. You can read the
measures from there.

Please note that SQ 744 and SQ754 are in opposition. Apparently, the SQ
that gets the most votes will win. Restore Oklahoma Public Education has
joined with the One Oklahoma Coalition to help get a no vote for SQ744.
I suppose that means we should campaign for a YES vote on SQ754! LOL.

I am not well versed in any but 744 and 754, but I am happy to answer
any questions I can based on my knowledge and understanding of those
(and any others!)

Please pass this around to your friends and neighbors. State Questions
in Oklahoma are extremely important and these are no different. Please
be informed BEFORE you enter the polling booth in November.
Blessings,
Jenni

"As parents, we can have no joy, knowing that this government is not sufficiently lasting to ensure any thing which we may
bequeath to posterity: And by a plain method of argument, as we are
running the next generation into debt, we ought to do the work of it,
otherwise we use them meanly and pitifully. In order to discover the
line of our duty rightly, we should take our children in our hand, and
fix our station a few years farther into life; that eminence will
present a prospect, which a few present fears and prejudices conceal
from our sight." --Thomas Paine, Common Sense, 1776
