This year we are hoping to get our members more closely involved with what we do at the State Capitol. In order to do this, we are planning Mini Capitol Days for members to attend. Shirts will be provided as supplies last. We have a limited number of sizes and styles available. We encourage you to attend a Capitol Day with your Senate District group so you can get to know members in your local area! Connect with your Senate District Captain by emailing us okhprcaptains@gmail.com. Please include your senate district.
Here are the first Mini Capitol Days of 2023!
*We have removed our previously scheduled Monday Mini Capitol Days because the Senate Health and Human Services Committee Meeting moved to a different day for the first time in at least seven years.*
