Political Advocacy
We help serve as a voice for Oklahoma's hospitality industry. Our associations are committed to advocating for the restaurant, hotel & lodging, and tourism industries on both the state and federal levels. But we cannot do it alone. When we come together as one voice we can make a bigger difference.
It's important to keep our members up to date on what legislation is being considered by the state legislature that could impact our industry. The bill introduction deadline is January 19, 2023. We will update the list of legislation the association is monitoring, in the First Session of the 59th Legislative session as soon as the list of bills are finalized. State issues coming soon! |
