Bill signing ceremony SB381, “Brendon’s Bill.” This bill allows schools to stock inhalers & administer to a student in the event of a respiratory emergency. I’m thankful to Brendon’s friends/family and to Leader @KayFloydOK for letting me run this life-saving bill. @GovStitt

Great news in Oklahoma -- a stock albuterol bill (SB 381) has unanimously passed a House Committee. A huge thank you to #asthma advocate Jennifer Blair -- she is working to make stock albuterol a reality for students in the Sooner State! https://t.co/GQiErUevli

We are honored to be working along side Rep. Dollens and Senator Floyd who are helping make our dream a reality. We cannot thank you enough!!

[Rep. Mickey Dollens @MickeyDollens]

Asthma is the most common chronic condition in children within Oklahoma. While there’s no cure for asthma, it can be managed with proper prevention, treatment, and policy. Please ask your Okla. Rep. & Sen. to sign on as a co-author for SB381. @BMAC_foundation @AllergyAsthmaHQ

Wow!! SB381 just passed unanimously on the Senate floor! This is great news for children in the state of Oklahoma. Next stop...the House of Representatives! Let’s get this done!!

[Brendon McLarty Memorial Foundation @BMAC_foundation]

Inhaler policies for schools are good public health policy.
Therefore, we urge support of SB381, Stock Inhalers in Schools

[Brendon McLarty Memorial Foundation @BMAC_foundation]

SB381
It went to Health and Human Services Committee today for consideration. It passed through committee unanimously! There is NO cure for asthma but it can be controlled with proper medication and prevention and treatment.
