[jobsthatareLEFT by GAIN] Campaign Manager -- Statewide Ballot -- Criminal Justice Reform -- Oklahoma

Campaign Manager

Yes on 805, Inc. is a diverse and bipartisan coalition that includes business and faith leaders, advocates and directly impacted people. We support State Question 805, a common sense reform that will curb the use of ineffective sentence enhancements for nonviolent offenses. 

 

Oklahoma has an incarceration crisis, driven in large part by its use of extreme sentences. People accused of crimes in Oklahoma can have years, decades, or even life in prison stacked on top of their prison sentence if they have ever been convicted of a crime in the past. These sentence enhancements can be applied at the complete discretion of prosecutors to increase the sentence for nearly any offense.

We are seeking an experienced full time Campaign Manager to lead the process to get the initiative onto the November 2020 ballot, giving voters the opportunity to vote YES for common-sense reforms.
