 Oklahoma Legislative Advocacy
Within previous year's legislative sessions, OKRSOL has been able to successfully block several pieces of harmful legislation that would have been extremely damaging for registrants and their families. In the future, OKRSOL will work to do the same as well as introduce legislation that will help to reduce the negative burdens experienced by registrants and their families.

These lobbying activities began in 2010. Each year, this work is conducted primarily at the state capital during the legislative session but occurs throughout the year as members of our legislative committee meet with state lawmakers to discuss issues that affect the registered community and the public as a whole.
 Stay Informed
Within each legislative session, any bills that will create further hardship for registrants and their families will be lobbied against with heavy opposition. Any bills introduced, that would create a positive change in the lives of registrants and their families, will receive our support.

The legislative session begins in February and ends in May. Legislative bills, that pass and are signed by the governor, will become new law. They go into effect each year on November 1st. It is important to be aware of these changes to the laws even before they go into effect.  Stay informed.
