American Muslims Breaking Barriers in POLITICS 2020
American Muslims Breaking Barriers IN POLITICS 2020 AMERICAN MUSLIMS BREAKING BARRIERS IN POLITICS 2020 1 Introduction Assalamualaikum, Peace be with you. The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the nation’s largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization, Jetpac, a representation-driven organization that trains American Muslims who want to run for office, and MPower Change, the largest Muslim-led social and racial justice organization in the United States, have partnered to highlight and document a list of candidates who ran for office in 2020, including in primary elections. It is our intention that this report serves as a resource and inspiration for other Muslims and people of color to run for public office in the United States. American Muslims are running for office in higher numbers than ever before, and this trend is expected to continue to rise with the many historic firsts we have seen across the country since 2017. A record 168 candidates were on 2020 ballots across 28 states and Washington D.C., which is the highest number since Jetpac, CAIR, and MPower Change started mapping the electoral progress of politicians who identify as Muslim. The candidates who have been running since 2017, win or lose, have continued to build coalitions in their communities after their campaigns ended, which has resulted in more Muslims being engaged in issue-based organizing on the local level. Muslim representation is still often neglected by policymakers, but the increase of candidates and community organizers is increasingly forcing elected officials and the media to include our perspective in the narrative on healthcare, the economy, immigration, and every other issue impacting American life. -

2020 Legislative Toolkit
2020 LEGISLATIVE TOOLKIT Oklahoma Primary Care Association OKLAHOMA COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS STATEWIDE OVERVIEW 21 health centers in Oklahoma operate 110+ locations across the state WHAT ARE COMMUNITY HEALTH CENTERS? Community health centers (CHCs), also known as Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) or health centers, are non-profit health care providers that deliver comprehensive primary health care services to medically underserved communities. To best serve their patients, many health centers offer a one-stop-shop of integrated services under one roof like medical, dental, behavioral, vision, transportation, case management, and more. The health center program provides health care to over 28 million individuals in the United States. Health centers have long been a bipartisan solution to concerns about health care access, quality, and cost. Health centers treat all patients regardless of ability to pay. In Oklahoma, where many families and individuals lack access to primary care, health centers provide much-needed cost-effective and preventive services and save the health care system money by preventing expensive, avoidable emergency department visits and chronic illnesses. Health centers use sliding fee scales based on patients’ income, have after-hours coverage, meet extensive performance and accountability requirements, and are governed by patient-majority boards that reflect the communities they serve. From Afton to Guymon and Hollis to Idabel, community health centers create jobs and save lives in every corner of our state. -

Senate Journal
1 Senate Journal First Regular Session of the Fifty-eighth Legislature of the State of Oklahoma First Legislative Day, Tuesday, January 5, 2021 COMMUNICATION November 23, 2020 The Honorable J. Kevin Stitt Governor, State of Oklahoma 2300 N. Lincoln Boulevard Oklahoma City, OK 73105 Dear Governor Stitt, Over the last six years, it has been my sincere honor to serve and represent the constituents of Senate District 22. I have done my best to be a voice for voters in Piedmont, Yukon, NW Oklahoma City and Edmond, and they believed in me enough to elect me twice to this senate seat. I’m pleased to have been a part of so many positive changes during my tenure. In 2016, voters passed State Question 792, supporting alcohol modernization which opened the door for new businesses and opportunities across Oklahoma, resulting in nearly 5,000 new jobs. With the passage of State Question 788 and the successful enactment of HB 1269, of which I was the Senate author, Oklahoma is working to reduce our mass incarceration rates and the related fiscal and social costs that go with it. I’d be remiss if I did not mention supporting the largest increase in public education funding in the history of our state in 2018 totaling almost half a billion dollars, and the subsequent passage of an additional $120M in 2019 which you championed. But more important than these, are the families who have been impacted by legislation I carried. Two bills in particular, one which standardized investigations following the sudden, unexplained death of infants in Oklahoma, and the second which delayed the release of autopsy reports to the media so next of kin would be given time to process the information contained in the reports, are some of my proudest moments of service. -

More than 10,000 prehistoric sites are recorded for the state, and they are estimated to represent about 10 percent of the actual number, according to archaeologist Don G. Wyckoff. Some of these sites pertain to the lives of Oklahoma’s original settlers—the Wichita and Caddo, and perhaps such relative latecomers as the Kiowa Apache, Osage, Kiowa, and Comanche. All of these sites comprise an invaluable resource for learning about Oklahoma’s remarkable and diverse The Clovis people lived Native American heritage. in Oklahoma at the Given the distribution and ages of studies sites, Okla- homa was widely inhabited during prehistory. -
