Help stop a dangerous new bill that would make Oklahoma's current Stand Your Ground law even more extreme. Fill out the form to send the letter below to your state representative >>
Dear Representative,
As your constituent, I strongly urge you to reject HB 3165, a reckless bill to make Oklahoma's Stand Your Ground law even more extreme.
HB 3165 would overturn a decision from Oklahoma’s highest criminal court and dangerously expand Oklahoma’s Stand Your Ground law. This bill is more extreme than a similar law that recently passed in Florida that multiple courts have ruled unconstitutional.
Instead of protecting Oklahomans, this bill would increase the likelihood that killers avoid justice and make Oklahoma an outlier — even among states with Stand Your Ground laws. HB 3165 would expand the current law by effectively requiring criminal defendants who raise a Stand Your Ground defense to be convicted twice.
Please REJECT HB 3165 and protect public safety in Oklahoma.
