With a focus on education issues only, POE’s government affairs team works on behalf of our members to pursue positive educational change. As a nonpartisan organization, POE is the only teacher association in Oklahoma whose members direct all lobbying efforts through annual and special legislative surveys. We believe it is our duty to speak for our members rather than in place of them.
