Dear Friend, The question that I and the OK Policy staff probably get asked the most is, "How do you keep going?". Knowing that we operate in a tough climate, where the values we believe and fight for end up on the winning side of the vote all too infrequently at the State Capitol, people wonder what keeps us from giving up and throwing in the towel. My honest answer is that what keeps us going is the support and encouragement we receive from you and so many other Oklahomans. Day after day, when we run into good friends, casual acquaintances, and sometimes complete strangers, we hear how much you rely on Oklahoma Policy Institute to get the facts and to stay informed about what's really happening in Oklahoma. "I don't know what we'd do without you." "You guys give me hope!" "I read In the Know every morning --- okay, most mornings." "Thanks to you, I've become a more informed citizen and engaged advocate." The kind words and sincere gratitude are what keep us going - but kind words don't pay the bills. If you're someone who values the work we do, I hope you'll take this opportunity to show us your love with a tax-deductible contribution of $25, $50, $100 or whatever amount you can afford. Your generous gift will allow us to continue to crunch the numbers, write the fact sheets, and organize the events that are making the difference in informing citizens and persuading policymakers. 
Thank you for your support, and all the best in the new year! David | Oklahoma Policy Institute
