Join us for a special recognition luncheon honoring two outstanding legislators for their leadership and dedication in advancing legislation to combat antisemitism. Senator Kristen Thompson and Representative Emily Gise will be presented with the inaugural Yolanda Charney Award for Public Leadership in recognition of their instrumental roles in the successful passage of Senate Bill 991 and Senate Bill 942. These important measures represent significant strides in defining antisemitism and increasing civil rights protections for Jews in Oklahoma. This event will bring together community leaders, advocates, and policymakers to celebrate this historic legislative achievement and the impact it will have across our state. A catered lunch will be served, followed by a short program and award presentation. RSVP required.
