The death penalty is inadmissible because it is an attack on the inviolability and dignity of the person. The common good can be safeguarded and the requirements of justice can be met without recourse to capital punishment: effective systems of detention have been developed that protect citizens while at the same time do not completely deprive those who are guilty of the possibility of redemption. #NoDeathPenalty

Thank you @GovStitt for all the work you have done and continue to do to make #Oklahoma safer!
Seek #Justice, Love #Mercy, Restore #Hope!
This bill began when my friend Tammy brought to our attention that the right to vote for formerly incarcerated Oklahomans is unclear. Thanks to @RepTammyWest, Senator Rader, @CCofOklahoma, and @GovStitt the right is clearly restored for individuals who completed their sentence
Yesterday we had the privilege of standing beside @GovStitt as he signed HB 4113, restoring voting rights to Oklahomans with felony histories who have fully served their sentence.
Thank you @JusticeReform for allowing us to work alongside you on this bill.
