EPISODE 27 -- Right now, we're behind

The Census is a crucial aspect of how we count every person to ensure the proper amount of resources are allocated to your area, including representation. They happen every 10 years, which includes 2020, so Fried Okra spoke with Josh McGoldrick, chief of staff and general counsel for the Oklahoma Department of Commerce about how educators can help. If you have not filled out the census, please do so here or by phone at (844) 330-2020. OEA's Center for Advocacy is on the front lines ensuring that the rights of educators are met. Every advocate we send across the state has worked in a classroom before and understands the challenging situations that can arise. One of those advocates, Cal Ware, joins the show to shine a light on him and the hard work advocates do fighting for educators.
