The Tulsa Bye Bye Ry Ry event has been cancelled but don’t worry, Ryan Walters is still managing to embarrass himself without our help. Stay tuned for what’s next.

Attended the Saints Ball benefiting the SSM Health system tonight. It’s inspiring to see our community unite to support the Mission of St. Anthony—saving lives and bringing healing to those we serve. Grateful as a healthcare worker to witness the power of compassion and care

Attended Craig McVay’s campaign kickoff for State Superintendent. Oklahoma is ranked 50th in education and that should light a fire under all of us. Our kids deserve better, our teachers deserve support, and it’s time to focus on learning not politics. No BS, just ABCs and 123s!

Just saw Congresswoman Stephanie Bice grabbing cigars. Guess she’s got time to puff but not enough to face her voters at a town hall. Thankful Jena Nelson is out here doing the work and talking to CD5 😂

Spent the last two days at the Oklahoma Institute for Child Advocacy Fall Forum with advocates and policymakers focused on moving Oklahoma forward for our kids.

Real change starts at home with families who care and communities willing to show up. That’s why I keep showing up.

Attended the Oklahoma Institute for Child Advocacy luncheon today with people fighting for Oklahoma’s kids.

As Jari Askins said, “Nobody wants to be against kids.” Every decision at the Capitol affects them, and they need our voices.

Be resilient. Be an advocate. Keep fighting!

Proud to attend today’s OKC Rotary luncheon with DA Vicki Behenna. Always inspiring to hear from leaders who care about justice and our communities. Great connecting with Nick Coffey, candidate for Oklahoma Attorney General — both working hard to make our state better.

Today we honor the rich histories, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous peoples. I’m grateful to live and serve on Native land — and committed to learning, listening, and showing respect through action.

It’s my birthday! This year I’m wishing for something bigger than me — a stronger, & united Oklahoma.

In 2024 I ran for HD 100 & came just 287 votes short after knocking on 25,000 doors. We proved that when we organize, we can win anywhere.

It’s World Mental Health Day. Let’s keep showing up for ourselves and each other. Talk about what you’re feeling, check on a friend, and remember — help is always available. Text 988 if you need support.

Proud of my friend Mayor Sandoval for leading a city that means so much to me. Seeing her deliver a proclamation for Hispanic Heritage Month in Bethany was powerful. Our schools & community showed up with pride & heart, a beautiful reminder of the strength in our shared stories.

A new and refreshing day for Oklahoma education. Grateful to see a state superintendent who’s choosing to support and uplift our teachers. #Onward

Last night at the Light the Future Gala I was reminded that kindness can’t wait. Maisha Project is showing what it looks like by giving children and families in Kenya a chance to rise above hardship and build hope. Donate here: www.maishaproject.org/donate/

Yesterday I toured Palomar’s open house and learned about the vital services they provide for survivors of domestic violence, their children, and even pets. Grateful this resource exists to give people a way out.

Ellen Pogemiller shows up for us every day. She is authentic, hardworking, and puts our community first. Strong leadership matters, and that’s why I’m proud to support her reelection in House District 88. #HD88 #ellenin2026

Last night was for the educators. I’m grateful to see so many come together to uplift public education. Our next superintendent must respect teachers, care for students, and invest in their future. Let’s keep showing up and holding leaders accountable.

Walked in the 20th Annual Fiestas de las Américas Parade and felt the strength of community with every step. Our Latino neighbors are a cornerstone of Oklahoma. Let’s keep showing up, uplifting voices, and building a stronger future together.

He talked big, delivered nothing, and now he’s gone. This exit deserves champagne and side-eye. Join us Sunday at Rococo at 6pm as we toast his goodbye and raise funds to back strong 2026 candidates.
