Our Position

Families shouldn’t be punished for accepting help when they need it, no matter where they are from. The proposed Public Charge rule change is fundamentally flawed and can’t be fixed. It should be withdrawn. Oklahoma communities thrive when everyone has the opportunity to build a better life with access to adequate food, housing and medical care.
