YMCA OKC & Norman's MS Youth & Government's, Model Legislative Day 2024
Model Legislative Day allows students to debate the policy issues affecting our state. Delegates write bills or resolutions outlining policy mechanisms that address pressing issues in our state. These bills and resolutions are presented, by their authors, and debated by their peers at the OK State Capitol for the Middle School Model Legislative Day Program. Through the Oklahoma YAG program, MS Model Legislative Day has allowed the next generation of leaders to speak up about the issues they care about while learning about the democratic process in our state and nation.
