Ryan Kiesel was one of the kindest people I’ve ever met. Honest, principled and full of goodness. I am deeply saddened to learn of his passing. This is a massive loss for all who knew him. My thoughts are with his family, sending them all the love tonight. nondoc.com/2025/01/31/att…

No better Big 3 during March (April) Madness when you gotta get the W! Today, Missy Thomas Irvin passed SB 620 out of the Judiciary Committee. Among other things, it will end the Unfair Sentencing of rape & trafficking victims! Thank you to our partners CPAC & The Just Trust!

What a win!! Never count them out…even down 6-1 😳

Today, we turn a page in Tulsa's history. For 104 years, the Tulsa Race Massacre has left a wound on the very soul of our city - hampering progress, opportunity, and hope. And while we can't undo the past, we can seek righteousness in this moment. That's why earlier today, I
