Pursuant to Pursuant to Article VII, Section 1 of the Rules Creating and Controlling the Oklahoma Bar Association, Amber Peckio, president-elect and Budget Committee chairperson, has set a public hearing on the 2026 Oklahoma Bar Association budget for 1:30 p.m., Tuesday, Oct. 14, at the Oklahoma Bar Center, 1901 N. Lincoln Blvd., in Oklahoma City. 

The purpose of the OBA is to engage in those activities enumerated in the Rules Creating and Controlling the Oklahoma Bar Association (the “Rules”) and the OBA Bylaws (the “Bylaws”). The expenditure of funds by the OBA is limited both as set forth in the Rules and Bylaws and by OBA policy in compliance with Keller v. State Bar of California, 496 U.S. 1 (1990). If any member feels that any actual or proposed expenditure is not within such purposes of, or limitations on the OBA, then such member may object by following the procedures set forth at https://www.okbar.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/OBA_KellerPolicy_March-2020.pdf

In accordance with the Keller policy, an independent auditor will review and certify the “opt out” amount for legislative activity. That will be reflected on the annual dues statement, and the certification and pro rata calculation will be listed at MyOKBar prior to the budget hearing.
