Stand up to oil barons, billionaires, and right-wing extremists enacting their scheme to enforce more power and restrictions on the People of Oklahoma.
Friendly reminder that OEA is not a union and they only represent 20% of teachers in Oklahoma. 🙃 🤷♀️👻
Y'all are your own movement. Your momentum and power is your own.
Unionize. Organize. Mobilize.

Cyndi Ralston @Cyndi4OK a teacher for 30 years, is now running for the House of Rep. district 12 seat. She just filed to the cheer of a crowd behind her. She tells me “I’m a teacher, not a politician, but ready to take on the role.” #OklahomaTeachersWalkout#oklaed@OKCFOX
Oklahoma candidate filing update:
- Two and half hours into the filing window and 92 state/federal/judicial candidates have filed
- Of that number 38 are for #okelg races
- 32 Republicans, 20 Democrats and 1 independent have filed for partisan races
@BranVanChemist Clara Luper was a teacher. Kate Barnard was a teacher. Elizabeth Warren is a teacher. Cornel West is a teacher. Oklahoma has a legacy of change-making teachers. And those teachers were disruptive in the name of right. Own it.
THIS IS HOW #OKLEG TREATS TEACHERS.
I am APPALLED.
This person should be removed from the legislature IMMEDIATELY. He is clearly unstable and a danger to others.
Again, another instance of violence at the Capitol -- AGAINST the protesters.

"I’ll await your call. Let me be clear about one thing, we need change. And you will do it, or you have my word…. one of the 100 women by my side will file for your seat…. and we will do it for you. I prefer to work with you. It’s your choice if you will work with me." https://t.co/LAOJuYujG9
Day 5: Teacher brothers and sister in Oklahoma stay strong, stay united and most of remember why you walked! Keep the pressure on. I'm sure the #OKleg is feeling it and the cracks are starting to show. You came with a purpose. Hold fast. @okea@OklaEd @OklahomaResist @standup4ok
Interesting, especially since there was already an OSBI agent present when Harold Hamm was at the capitol. Is this a continuation of that investigation? https://t.co/SP0FT3sVuA
Regardless of how tomorrow goes, if teachers push this bad boy to Monday, the legislature is suddenly going to be seeing a lot more opportunities to fix the mess THEY CREATED. Count on that.
Reminder to everyone who wants to file for office and take down this ineffective legislature. The deadline is April 11-13. Find a qualified candidate and help them with their filing fees.
It could be you.
The time to change this state is NOW.
